How to Run iMessage on Windows 10?
Technically, you can’t run iMessage on Windows 10, and Apple doesn’t even have any web interface for iMessage. So, there’s no official way to run iMessage on Windows operating systems. However, if you still want to run iMessage on Windows, you need to rely on remote access apps.
1. Using Chrome Remote Desktop
To try out this method, you still need to have a Mac. The point here is to leave the Mac running and access it remotely from a Windows 10 PC.

First of all, open Google Chrome web browser and install Chrome remote desktop on both Mac and Windows 10 PC. Step 2. Now open Chrome remote desktop on Mac and scroll down to the ‘My Computers’. Under the My computers, click on the ‘Get Started’ button.
Step 3. Next, you will be asked to download the Chrome Remote Desktop Host Installer. Once installed, open Chrome remote desktop on Mac again and click on the ‘Enable remote connections’ button. Now you will be asked to create a PIN.
Step 4. Once done, open the Chrome Remote desktop on Windows 10. Make sure to use the same account that you have used to login to Chrome for Mac. Once done, click on the ‘Get Started’ button located behind the My Computers. Step 5. If everything is set up correctly, the pre-configured MacBook should show up. Click on the MacBook, and enter the PIN code created in Step no. 3.
That’s it! You are done. Now you can remotely access the Mac computer from Windows 10. You can now use iMessage from Windows 10.
