How do I install Windows 10 onto my iPad 2?

I Already have an iPad 2 but the operating system can be pretty annoying to me, and very limited, and I know Windows 10 is great because you can use it like a desktop, and also switch to mobile mode, but I don't have enough money currently to buy a new Surface, so I'm really wanting to replace my iOS system Windows ten, and I need help to do that because YouTube doesn't have any tutorials on that, and I dont want to stream!

SO if you can help me please do leave a comment to help me, thanks

Sam

iPad 2, iOS 9.3.1, I want to change the OS!

You cannot. Windows 10 will not install on an iOS device like an iPad.

But can't we just remove the OS and replace it?

No, you cannot. An iOS device will not run Windows 10, or any other Windows version to be exact. They are not designed for that. If you want to use Windows, sell the iPad and get a Windows tablet.

Sam,

You can't find any YouTube videos on that topic because it is not possible to install Windows 10 on an iPad.

iOS Devices are not made to be used with Windows Operating Systems. Sadly, this would not work.

Agreed. If I want iOS, I get an iPad. If I want Windows, I get a Windows tablet. Why would I purchase an iPad with the intent of wanting to install Windows? 😕

Sorry, but it is not possible to replace iOS with Windows 10. If you truly desire Windows 10 on a tablet, sell your iPad and put those funds towards a Surface 3.
