Remix OS 2.0 on Teclast X80 Power, CPU: Atom X5-Z8300 - Remix OS for PC

I've successfully managed to get Remix OS 2.0 to run on my Teclast X80 Power Win/Android tablet. This tablet is based on the X5-Z8300 Intel Atom chipset, and I've removed and cleared out the Windows partition and gave the entire storage space/drive to the Android image.
I've also successfully removed and disabled the Remix launcher and run Nova Launcher Prime on it.
What I would like to do next is to remove the Taskbar and Notification tray of the Remix OS 2.0. I've seen a few posts regarding why anyone would like to do this, the answer is simple, the Remix OS 2.0 Android distribution is the only other distribution that works with my tablet. I have the B2N6 variant of this tablet, so the machetekills custom rom for it does not run (it was designed for the B2N3), however, I do have this tablet rooted with machetekills toolbox and have TWRP installed. From that, I was able to install Magisk and have my tablet rooted. Also, the stock rom that this tablet came with is highly unstable (if you queue up a ton of apps to be installed in Google Play Store, the tablet will eventually lock up and go into its death-roll bootloop til the battery is dead, then after charging the battery up, it will just continue into the bootloop until it kills the battery again, if left in this condition overnight, there is a possibility that the battery is overstressed and can flame up), is a distro from China so security is very questionable, as well as the kernel used was a 32-bit kernel rather than the nice 64-bit kernel in the Remix OS 2.0 distro (shout-out goes to this Korean guy who made a small blog that lead me to the Remix OS 2.0 and he even provided the link to it on his page).
FOR THOSE THAT WANT TO TRY REMIX OS 2.0 on their TECLAST X80 Power, Model B2N4 or B2N6 (as far as I know, the N4 and the N6 have the same software configuration for the touchscreen, the screen rotation/orientation) here is the link to the blog (please be aware that it's in Korean so you may need to run a translate to your own language with Google translate or something):

Can anyone please help me with how to remove the taskbar/notification of the Remix OS 2.0 and replaced with the stock Android home, back, applist, and with the notification bar and tray at the TOP of the screen, like a phone? I really do not like using this tablet as a Windows replacement, since this tablet can do that already natively (I've had it running Windows 10 x64 exclusively for the past 3 years) and Android as a desktop is not very good compared to Windows (let's be honest, if Android desktop was a thing, it would be carving a huge chunk out of the desktop marketshare from MacOS and Windows).
Thanks!

Do you have to uninstall previuos version before the new installation?
Will the Tool automatically replace the previous version??? Or it has to be uninstalled before that?
anyone having an issue with Play Activator? It just stays in activation loop and does nothing
Native support to change screen resolution for hi-res screens, or do I have to continue using a magnifying glass?

Use the built in Remix tool.
It will remove the previous version and install the new one.

Go to the main Remix OS website. It'll direct you. It's not an OTA update just yet.

Remix OS (for PC) boot problems...

I have tried creating a USB RAM-drive, and booting RemixOS (for PC/64) from it on my Cherry Trail (Teclast X16 Power) tablet. It gets to the screen that says "System initializing, please wait...". but never gets past that.
As mentioned, my Teclast X16 tablet is an Intel "Cherry Trail" (Z8700) dual-boot device, that can boot into either Android 5.1 or Windows10. Unfortunately the Android build that comes with it is not very good. (IE: Though the tablet has a GPS sensor, it doesn't work in Android. There are also a few other oddities about the Teclast Android build.)
It is possible that RemixOS is trying to make use of the Android data partition that is on the tablet's internal SSD (instead of using the USB RAM-Drive that RemixOS is on), and being that it already has data on it from the Android OS that came installed on the tablet, maybe it causes problems during boot.
I wanted to just try out RemixOS on this device. A few of the things that I really want to know is...
- Will the tablet touch screen work with RemixOS, or would I have to always use a mouse & keyboard?
- Will the GPS sensor work with RemixOS?
I was also looking to see if there was a way that I could boot RemixOS (for PC) in a VirtualBox VM, but I have not had any success getting that to work. Has anyone been able to run it in a VM successfully?
Hey mediawiz any luck with that?
I just got my hands on a Pipo W1S (x5 z8300 Cherry Trail) and tried a couple of times to boot up Remix OS from a thumb drive with no luck so far.

WINE 3.0 for YOGA BOOK

Wine 3.0 has been released recently and it now supports android, especially x86 android, like our beloved YB.
Unfortunately, im using windows version.
ive tried the WINE 3.0 on my Shield Tablet (arm), it works but with limited function. i only got to play with the windows calculator. media player comes pre-installed but doesnt run. maybe because my android tablet was ARM-based.
ive discovered that for android, the C:/ directory is at /data/data/org.winehq.wine/ - so you would probably need to root your device.
for those who have the YB android, pls let us know what you think
I tried to get Office 2016 working in Wine 3.1 but got an error upon install. I haven't had a chance to try any other installs
