Most of the applications and games based on java have a .jar extension. But sometimes, we need to check them on the system before installing them on the mobile. Unfortunately, Windows does not support these types of files (like games ) so you cannot run .jar files directly on the PC.
There are two ways to run .jar applications on the PC. The first way is to convert the .jar format into .exe format and use the application directly on PC. The other way is to use an emulator. An emulator provides us the facility to run .jar applications directly on the computer. With the help of these emulators we can use mobile applications and play mobile games on the PC . There are two popular emulators available on the internet.
Free Emulators to run java applications on the system:
1. Midpx Emulator
The Midpx emulator is a freeware software . This software has both options – it can convert the .jar format into .exe as well as run .jar format directly on the system. Both ways work satisfactorily.
