Custom/modfied Windows OS installations (such as ReviOS, Tiny 10/11 and Ghost Spectre etc.) may have issues with running WSA. | ||
RAM |
| |
Processor | CPU Architecture: x86_64 or arm64 | |
Your PC should meet the basic Windows™ 11 requirements i.e Core i3 8th Gen, Ryzen 3000, Snapdragon 8c, or above | N/A This is a bit of a hit or miss, but it is highly recommended that your processor is listed in the supported CPU lists for Windows 11 requirements | |
GPU | Any compatible Intel, AMD or Nvidia GPU. GPU Performance may vary depending on its compatibility with Windows Subsystem For Android™
| |
Storage | Solid-state drive (RECOMMENDED) OR Hard Disk Drive (HDD) (NOT RECOMMENDED) | |
Minimum Storage Requirements: You must have at least 10GB free on the system drive (C:) | ||
Partition | NTFS ONLY Windows Subsystem For Android™ can only be installed on a NTFS partition, not on an exFAT partition | |
Windows Features Needed | Virtual Machine Platform Enabled | |
Windows Hypervisor Platform Enabled | ||
These optional settings are for virtualization and provide components that are needed to run WSA. You can enable these settings by pressing the Windows Key + R on your keyboard and typing "OptionalFeatures.exe" into the box, pressing enter and selecting the features above followed by pressing apply | ||
Virtualization | The Computer must support virtualization and be enabled in BIOS/UEFI and Optional Features. Guide on how to enable |
> [!NOTE] > > If you have the official Windows Subsystem For Android™ installed, you must completely uninstall it to use MagiskOnWSA.
> [!IMPORTANT]
>
> In case you want to preserve your data from the previous installation (official or MagiskOnWSA), you can backup Userdata.vhdx, located at %LOCALAPPDATA%PackagesMicrosoftCorporationII.WindowsSubsystemForAndroid_8wekyb3d8bbweLocalCacheuserdata.vhdx
before uninstallation and restore it after installation. A guide for this process is located further down in this README.
Go to the Releases page
In the latest release, go to the Assets section and download the Windows Subsystem For Android™ version of your choosing (do not download "Source code")
Extract the .7z archive and rename the folder (that you extracted) to WSA
Delete the .7z archive
Move the newly extracted folder to a suitable location (Documents folder is a good choice), as you will need to keep the folder on your PC to use MagiskOnWSA
> [!NOTE]
> If you're updating WSA, merge the folders and replace the files for all items when asked
Open the Windows Subsystem For Android™ folder: Search for and double-click Run.bat
Press Win+x and select Windows™ Terminal (Admin)
Input the command below and press enter, replacing {X:pathtoyourextractedfolder} including the {} with the path of the extracted folder
cd "{X:pathtoyourextractedfolder}"
Input the command below and press enter
PowerShell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .Install.ps1
The script will run and Windows Subsystem For Android™ will be installed
If this workaround does not work, your PC is not supported for WSA
If you previously have a MagiskOnWSA installation, it will automatically uninstall the previous one while preserving all user data and install the new one, so don't worry about your data.
If the popup windows disappear without asking administrative permission and Windows Subsystem For Android™ is not installed successfully, you should manually run Install.ps1 as administrator:
Once the installation process completes, Windows Subsystem For Android™ will launch (if this is a first-time install, a window asking for consent to diagnositic information will be shown instead. Sometimes two identical windows will show, this is fine and nothing bad happens if you click OK in both windows)
Click on the PowerShell window, then press any key on the keyboard, the PowerShell window should close
Close File Explorer
Enjoy
---
You can NOT delete the Windows Subsystem For Android™ installation folder.
What Add-AppxPackage -Register .AppxManifest.xml
does is to register an appx package with some existing unpackaged files,
so you need to keep them as long as you want to use Windows Subsystem For Android™.
Check https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/appx/add-appxpackage?view=windowsserver2022-ps for more details.
You need to register your Windows Subsystem For Android™ appx package before you can run Windows Subsystem For Android™.
For WSABuilds and MagiskOnWSALocal users, you need to run Run.bat
in the extracted dir.
If the script fails, you can take the following steps for diagnosis (admin privilege required):
Open a PowerShell window and change working directory to your Windows Subsystem For Android™ directory.
Run the command below in PowerShell. This should fail with an ActivityID, which is a UUID required for the next step.
Add-AppxPackage -ForceApplicationShutdown -ForceUpdateFromAnyVersion -Register .AppxManifest.xml
Run the command below in PowerShell. This should print the log of the failed operation.
Get-AppPackageLog -ActivityID <uuid>
Check the log for the reason of failure and fix it.
> [!IMPORTANT] > Make sure that WSA has been turned off from the settings and that tools such has WSA-System-Control, WSA-Sideloader, WSAPacman etc are not running.
Download the latest build (that you want to update to)
Make sure Windows Subsystem For Android is not running (Click on "Turn off" in the WSA Settings and wait for the spinning loader to disappear)
Using 7-Zip, WinRAR or any other tool of choice, open the .7z archive
Within the .7z archive, open the subfolder
WSA_2xxx.xxxxx.xx.x_xx
WSA_2xxx.xxxxx.xx.x_xx_Release-Nightly-with-magisk-xxxxxxx-MindTheGapps-xx.x-RemovedAmazon)
Example:
or
Select all the files that are within this subfolder and extract them to the current folder where the file for Windows Subsystem For Android (the folder you extracted, and installed WSA from) are located
When prompted to replace folders, select "Do this for all current items" and click on "Yes"
When prompted to replace files, click on "Replace the files in the destination"
Run the Run.bat
file
Launch Windows Subsystem For Android Settings app and go to the About
tab using the sidebar
Check if the WSA version matches the latest version/ the version number that you want to update to
Join the Discord if you are having any difficulties
> [!NOTE]
>
> If you want to preseve your data, make a backup of the %LOCALAPPDATA%PackagesMicrosoftCorporationII.WindowsSubsystemForAndroid_8wekyb3d8bbweLocalCacheuserdata.vhdx
file. After uninstalling, copy the VHDX file back to the %LOCALAPPDATA%PackageMicrosoftCorporationII.WindowsSubsystemForAndroid_8wekyb3d8bbweLocalCache
folder. For a more comprehensive and detailed guide, take a look at the Backup and Restore section in this README markdown
1.) Make sure that Windows Subsystem For Android™ is not running
2.) Search for Windows Subsystem For Android™ Settings
using the built-in Windows Search, or through Add and Remove Programs and press uninstall
3.) Delete the WSA folder that you extracted and Run.bat was run from to install WSA (MagiskOnWSA folder)
4.) Go to %LOCALAPPDATA%/Packages/
and check if the folder: MicrosoftCorporationII.WindowsSubsystemForAndroid_8wekyb3d8bbwe
is still present:
If you get an error that states that the file(s) could not be deleted, make sure that WSA is turned off
If the folder is still present: Delete it
If the folder does not exist: Skip this step
1.) Search for Windows Subsystem For Android™ Settings
using the built-in Windows Search, or through Add and Remove Programs and press uninstall
In order to make a backup of your WSA data you must copy the Userdata.vhdx
(which includes, but is not limited Android Apps and their data, settings etc.), located at %LOCALAPPDATA%PackagesMicrosoftCorporationII.WindowsSubsystemForAndroid_8wekyb3d8bbweLocalCacheuserdata.vhdx
, to a safe location
Before attempting to restore your backup, you must remove WSA if installed. Then before you run the Run.bat
script (to reinstall WSA after removing it), you need to remove these lines from Install.ps1
, located in the your extracted WSA folder:
> [!TIP]
> The Lines (as shown below) that you need to remove in Install.ps1
may vary depending on the type of WSA Build that you are trying to install.
Start-Process "wsa://com.android.settings"
Start-Process "wsa://com.topjohnwu.magisk"
Start-Process "wsa://io.github.huskydg.magisk"
Start-Process "wsa://io.github.vvb2060.magisk"
Start-Process "wsa://com.android.vending"
Start-Process "wsa://com.amazon.venezia"
After removing the lines above, run the script.
When the Powershell window states "Press any key to quit", at that time multiple dialouge boxes will open:
> [!IMPORTANT] > Ignore these and do not click on anything or close these popups
Go to %localappdata%Packages
and (if these folders/directory do not exist, create them) in MicrosoftCorporationII.WindowsSubsystemForAndroid_8wekyb3d8bbweLocalCache
paste the userdata.vhdx
Now close the popups and run WSA and your userdata should hopefully be restored
Help me, I am having problems with the MagiskOnWSA Builds
Open an issue in Github or join the Discord and describe the issue with sufficent detail
Help me, I am having problems with installing Windows Subsystem For Android™ on Windows™ 10
I am not working on the patch, and nor claim to. Open an issue in the Discord or Github, and I will try to assist you with the problem if possible. For full support visit the project homepage and open an issue there: https://github.com/cinit/WSAPatch/issues/
How do I get a logcat?
There are two ways:
adb logcat
or
Location in Windows --->%LOCALAPPDATA%PackagesMicrosoftCorporationII.WindowsSubsystemForAndroid_8wekyb3d8bbweLocalStatediagnosticslogcat
Can I delete the installed folder?
No.
How can I update Windows Subsystem For Android™ to a new version?
As Explained Installation instructions. Download the latest Windows Subsystem For Android™ Version and replace the content of your previous installation and rerun Install.ps1. Don't worry, your data will be preserved
How do I update Magisk?
Do the same as updating Windows Subsystem For Android™. Wait for a new MagiskOnWSA release that includes the newer Magisk version, then follow the Installation instructions to update
Can I pass SafetyNet/Play Integrity?
No. Virtual machines like Windows Subsystem For Android™ cannot pass these mechanisms on their own due to the lack of signing by Google. Passing requires more exotic (and untested) solutions like: <https: 145#discussioncomment-2170917="" discussions="" github.com="" kdrag0n="" safetynet-fix="">
What is virtualization?
Virtualization is required to run virtual machines like Windows Subsystem For Android™. Run.bat
helps you enable it. After rebooting, re-run Run.bat
to install Windows Subsystem For Android™. If it's still not working, you have to enable virtualization in your BIOS/UEFI. Instructions vary by PC vendor, look for help online
Can I remount system partition as read-write?
No. Windows Subsystem For Android™ is mounted as read-only by Hyper-V. You can, however, modify the system partition by creating a Magisk module, or by directly modifying the system.img file
I cannot adb connect localhost:58526
Make sure developer mode is enabled. If the issue persists, check the IP address of Windows Subsystem For Android™ on the Settings ---> Developer page and try
adb connect ip:5555
Magisk online module list is empty?
Magisk actively removes the online module repository. You can install the module locally or by
Step 1
adb push module.zip /data/local/tmp
Step 2
adb shell su -c magisk --install-module /data/local/tmp/module.zip
How do I uninstall Magisk?
Request, using Issues, a Windows Subsystem For Android™ version that doesn't include Magisk from the Releases page. Then follow the Installation instructions
Can I switch between OpenGApps and MindTheGapps?
No. GApps will no longer function. Do a complete uninstallation before switching
How do I install custom Magisk or GApps?
To request a build with custom Magisk or GApps, feel free to open an issue in the Issues page You can also achieve this by using the MagiskOnWSALocal Script and following the provided instructions located in the repo. </https:>

eGovPH | 2.0.4 | 13 | Tested on a WSA install with GMS and It's also recommended to turn off Developer Options before starting this app. The app doesn't start properly if you didn't grant the permissions beforehand in android settings. For eReport, the app can't progress beyond the Current Location permission prompt as clicking the "Enable Location" doesn't do anything (even with the location permission granted for WSA in Windows); the workaround is to access it via the Suggested eGovPH Services part (found on the Home tab). eKYC verification is problematic as the built-in laptop camera is wonky with eGovPH's image handling, affecting the verification process (this also applies if you're registering an account from the same device for its face verification). Some pages display no content (notably FAQs and application details on some cases) | Basic features work such as navigating through the app features/pages. The PhilSys Digital ID page works as well and able to recognize it in the verification site from another device. Recommended to use an up-to-date version of Android System WebView since the app mostly relies on it. | |
