Hi ChakraCore Team,

We have existing Windows 8.1 applications and we wanted to run those applications on windows 8 .1and windows 10. For windows 10 we are using Chakra engine and we ideal for windows 8.1. Please suggest me?

Thanks,
Pallam Madhukar

You can embed ChakraCore on Win8.1 store apps similar to using Chakra on Win10. There are some APIs that are Chakra-only though, e.g. JsStartDebugging and JsProjectWinrtNamespace.

Edit:
Actually, saw you on the other thread, you need to place the .dll right next to the .exe, in something like myapp\x64\Release\myapp.Windows\AppX

Edit2:
Actually only Chakra.dll only supports store apps on Windows 10 and both ChakraCore and jscript9.dll are not store certifiable. Sorry for the previously incorrect information. Documentation:

JsRT for the Windows Store only supports the Edge engine (chakra.dll). Apps attempting to link against any JsRT API in jscript9.dll will fail certification.

Looks like this question is answered. Closing.
