Last updated July 26, 2024
One of the key benefits of Shadow is the ability to access a wide range of games and applications on your virtual machine. Here's how to get started.
Accessing Games and Applications
- Launch the Shadow app: Open the Shadow app on your preferred device and connect to your Shadow instance.
- Install Games and Applications:
- From the Windows Store: Browse the Windows Store (accessible from the Start menu), find the desired game or application, and click "Install."
- From Steam, Epic Games Store, or other platforms: Open your desired gaming platform (e.g., Steam, Epic Games Store), log in, and install games like you would on a traditional PC.
- Direct Downloads: If the game or application isn't available on the Windows Store or a platform you use, you can download the installer directly from the developer's website and install it.
- Launch the Game or Application: Once the installation is complete, locate the game or application in your Start menu or within your gaming platform. Click to launch it.
**Note:** You may need to configure your game settings or specific graphics drivers for optimal performance. Consult the game's official documentation or support team for more information.
