What are Windows PE Bootable Recovery Discs?
APK is the file extension associated with the Android application. Instead of going to Google Play and directly installing the apps, we need to download the installer package file separately. Apkmirror is one such source that handles .apk files covering almost all Android apps, and it is by far one of the least risky ways to download an Android app.

For the sake of convenience, we suggest that you collect all the .apk files you need in one folder.
3. Start using ARC Welder to load and run Android apps
Once you've armed yourself with the apps, all you need to do is head to the Chrome app launcher and click on the ARC welder icon. The ARC Welder has a clutter-free user interface that includes an "Add your APK" button. Clicking on it takes you to the file manager where users can select the .apk file.
4. Configuration of the ARC welder
Frankly, there isn't a lot of DIY to be done as the settings are pretty much standard for all applications. It takes into account your preferences, which include orientation (Landscape or Portrait mode), form factor (tablet mode seems to be the best as it scales without any issues), and clipboard access permissions.
5. Launching the application
So here is the moment of truth. Press the “Launch Application” button and the application will open in a new window. The app will feature the same functionality as the Android counterparts. Not all apps work perfectly, and some apps don't load at all. Another downside is that apps that require Google Play services won't work.
Users will find it difficult to use apps that require touch-intensive functions. We tried using apps like Slack which worked fine without any issues. We're hoping Google will soon start offering officially ported apps for the Chromebook, giving it a much-needed productivity boost.
