If you're asking about how to install Windows 10 ARM on an ARM based device, such as an Android tablet, this most-likely isn't going to be possible. There aren't going to be drivers made for Windows for just any tablet out there, and hardware control is another big issue. 

Main System: Phobos

AMD Ryzen 7 2700 (8C/16T), ASRock B450 Steel Legend, 16GB G.SKILL Aegis DDR4 3000MHz, AMD Radeon RX 570 4GB (XFX), 960GB Crucial M500, 2TB Seagate BarraCuda, Windows 10 Pro for Workstations/macOS Catalina

How to install windows 10 on arm cpu based tablet

Windows 10 ARM edition is not released yet. It is still being developed, including its x86 emulator to run programs and games that we use daily.

It is expected to support the coming up Snapdragon 835, as it needs all the performance it can, especially for the x86 emulator.

 

For now, you have Windows 10 IoT edition designed for select ARM based development boards like the Raspberry Pie 2 and up, amongst others. This is a free edition of Windows 10. However, you don't have a desktop, or anything. Once it boot up, all you see is this:

It is in a ready state to upload a Universal App and it will run it. And you can make it start on your next startup, so that yo don't need to upload it every time.

 

The idea is to bring the power of Universal Apps framework with your programming language of choice (well to be exact: HTML/CSS+JavaScript, C/C++) including C# and .NET, with WPF GUI framework (XAML), to these systems. All combined, you can do rich, hardware accelerated, high-DPI, multi-touch (assuming you have the supported hardware) applications and games with OpenGL, Vulkan or DirectX. Assuming your GPU of your IoT board supports them fully or to some levels, of course.

 

All in all, it allows one to make it with much greater ease to develop software for your system compared to Linux. Not to mention, be able to use Visual Studio on your main system, and debug remotely to that device with ease.
