Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizens Wu Yanzu in South China for the delivery of clues! CTOnews.com, February 7, a few days ago, Microsoft released the 2211.40000.11.0 update of Windows 11 Android subsystem WSA for all Windows preview experience member channels, upgrading the subsystem to Android 13.

Of course, there are certain barriers to running the WSA subsystem on Win11 devices. Microsoft's official recommendation for running devices is as follows:

Memory: 8 GB (minimum) 16 GB (recommended)

Storage type: SSD (recommended)

Processor architecture: x64 or ARM64

Virtual machine platform

Although these hardware conditions are not harsh at present, for some old platforms that use classic CPU or lack TPM 2.0 support, it may be difficult for them to use Win11 system, and they can only use Win10 system under compliance, so they can not use WSA.

But now that a third-party developer has figured out how to install WSA on Windows 10, let's take a look.

First of all, I would like to emphasize that the following methods are only an experiment, will never be officially supported by Microsoft, and require you to learn a lot of relevant technical knowledge before doing it, and may involve some risks, so be prepared.

According to CTOnews.com, there are at least two ways to install WSA on Windows 10. One is to use an open source tool called WSAPatch. You can download it on GitHub. According to the developer's description, it is a "patch enabled by WSA" and is currently available to run on Windows 10.

In short, WSAPatch can help you use it on Windows 10 22H2 or later computers with WSL enabled. You need to get the Windows 11 DLL file, download and modify the WSA installer, then create and apply patches to the WSA program, and finally bypass Microsoft's restrictions to install the WSA environment on Win10 through a series of operations.

In addition, the xda-developers member @ ga11ga11 gives another way, but you also need to enable WSL, and you also need to get the root version of WSA from WSABuilds (which removes Amazon App Store and enables Google Play), then install specific components, extract folders, and finally run some commands to install and enable WSA.

Well, it sounds simple, right, but in fact, the operation is very tedious, and there is the possibility of causing system anomalies, and we do not recommend novice users to try.

If you have to say, there are other ways to run Android applications on Windows, such as Android emulator or third-party tools such as Genymotion, and these virtual machines are officially supported on Windows 10. If you just need to run Android App, consider it.
