How to install Windows 10 on ARM Devices (Raspberry Pi 3)?

Now, Windows 10 desktop (Pro and S editions) can run on machines that are powered by ARM64 processors with the Fall Creators Update.The power-saving nature of the ARM CPU architecture allows these PCs to have all-day battery life and support for mobile data networks. These PCs will provide great application compatibility and allow you to run your existing x86 win32 applications unmodified.
