How to install Webull Desktop on a Chromebook - Windows Version


Today we are looking at how to install Webull Desktop on a Chromebook.  Please follow the video/audio guide as a tutorial where we explain the process step by step and use the commands below.

This tutorial will only work on Chromebooks with an Intel or AMD CPU (with Linux Apps Support) and not those with an ARM64 architecture CPU.

If you have any questions, please contact us via a YouTube comment and we would be happy to assist you!

Please take note, that as seen in the video, the update process did encounter some errors but worked at the end, we don't know if there are any other errors, if there are, please let us know on Youtube.

We also have a tutorial to install Webull Desktop with Crossover.  It is easier.
