@@AbdulMalik-ob8sg What I mean is that there is maybe only one Android app that I want that doesn't have a desktop version. All the useful Android apps already have desktop versions. So why would I want to run them in Android emulation on my desktop? @Kevin Stratvert, maybe you can give a reason?
I really need to test this. I am a Windows Insider, in the Dev Channel. Why is MS preventing Dev members from testing something that's in BETA? It will no longer let me switch to Beta. What the heck Microsoft???! Why did they remove our ability to switch between Dev and Beta? Why are the Dev group being punished when they should be having the MOST access to test everything???? Grr.
I've upgraded to Windows 11 and am prepared to wait a month for the feature to become available. But, in any case, this is a fantastic video that is both fun and informative:)
Enable developer mode in WSA settings, have ADB (android debug bridge) and apk file. Go to folder where you have ADB. Connect to emulator by using address it Will provide in settings to you adb connect If it Fails open any app to start WSA and repeat And Now you can install adb install
This feature is useful in United States only, not for all, bro please mention this it would helps to all, who are seeing this video out of US. The video is very clear and help fill
Bluestacks no longer works on windows 11 home even after forcing hyper-v to install and then disabling it. Neither does nox player. Either I'm doing something wrong or I have no idea. It's starting to feel like it's not worth it tbh because I'm wasting so much time just trying to play phone games on my laptop when I already have a phone. It's frustrating that it's not working though
Kevin, thanks for ALL the very useful Microsoft Windows centric videos. I am currently using a MacBook Pro 2017 because my Windows laptop died. Your videos are really having me considering the purchase of a new Windows laptop.
not available in my country as expected, but i just changed my region, installed it just for it to not work at all....literally, it loads and just closes automatically.....
Great video on explaining android apps on Windows, but that is one wonky setup. Hope the process will improve with time, without having to go thru Amazon.
It's not really Android apps, but Amazon apps. If Amazon doesn't have it - and they are missing a LOT - you can't get it. So far everything I've looked for is unavailable, and I'm not looking for cutting edge, unusual stuff. What a waste of my time installing the subsystem on my laptop. I'll keep my desktop on Windows 10, since 11 offers me nothing so far. Very, very disappointing.
Question I downloaded Windows 11 in unsupported device for school purpose My Windows Insider Program is not working it says that "It doesn't meet the minimum hardware" Pls my kind request pls say any solution for this
Sideloading works , no need for amazon store. must use cmd commands . But you can add a .bat you make with the commands for install. little work but once you do it makes it easy to install the apk's.
Windows users to emulators: "Uh... I wish someday Windows get Android apps to run." Windows users to integrated emulator: "Nice idea that Microsoft made Android run natively!" C'mon, we both know that Windows kernel don't support it as it's not Unix. It's just a link. What Posix will do? Chroot? lol Hopefully Microsoft don't mess this up, because would be a time saver for those who don't have the time to tinker it.
So slow To start apps. If you are unsupported hardware. It will keep reminding you of that on every app launch especially if you have less than 8gb ram. Weeps in surface go with unexpandable ram
I've been on Windows 11 Insider Preview for quite some time and I'm up to date. Can't seem to find an app that supports the Android Emulator thing. Also, I can't seem to find Game of Kings. Maybe because I'm in Canada
Joined the program. Installed it. Opened MS Store, searched for game of kings. It's not there. I went to the Amazon app store and found it. However, there's no option to install the app on my pc, all it wants to do is send it to my phone. Don't know what I'm missing here. But, with the download option I can't seem to get a prompt install the Android OS on my PC. So lost.
i tried and it did not work . even tried typing in the same game name " game of kings" with no success. none of the games i typed in showed "mobile" i registerd for Microsoft Insider Program and selected "Beta Channel". even tried restarting the computer multiple times with no success. any ideas?
I have a question.. i am in windows 11 but i am on the dev build, i reallly wanna switch to the beta insider program, but its grayed out!! PLEASE HELP ME !
I'm running the Dev version of Windows 11. They skipped right over it and went to the Beta version for running apps. It does not look like an easy task to change from Dev to Beta. When running Dev, In the "choose your insider settings" Beta and Release Preview are grayed out
Question... If, for example... I downloaded and installed the Twitter Android app to run on my Windows 11 laptop... Could I host and speak on Twitter Spaces live audio sessions via the app on my PC? I know this is possible using the Blue Stacks emulator, but is it potentially possible now via the Amazon App Store?
so no 3rd party soft is required and yet one has to have an amerian amazon account, install amazon bloatware (which is not available in Europe) and some windows bloatware. doesn't seem any better than installing Android Studio and running an emulator
My Dell laptop already showing Windows 11 free updates, so if it is still in testing when should I actually update.. means when it will be better to update
Just bought DJI Osmo Action 4. I have an Android phone. They require me to download their Mimo app but my phone will not download it. I can not activate my new action camera and the help people keep telling me to buy a new phone. Will the process you describe allow me to operate the Mimo app on my new Windows 11 Asus laptop? I am not good with computer stuff.
This would've been better if they had tried to get in touch with Google instead of Amazon. Because most users doesn't have Amazon accounts and invested in their app store...
Hey I notice that when I try to enable any windows feature and it then ask to restart, the computer won't boot. After I get into the advanced boot options it's unable to solve startup problems, and only when I select to boot in Safe Mode it then do a restart then states that "Things didn't go as planned, don't worry, undoing changes", then it boot normally but that also undo the feature that I am trying to enable. Anyone knows what is causing this issue and how to fix it?
Not in this video: Amazon appstore is only available in the US, so if you're NOT using a VPN and not from the US, no point.
man how can I use this sideload capability if Im from India and will I be able to install pirated apk games etc.?
Omg, that's why I wonder why this is not working in my device🤣

Ill do some gaming, like clash of clans or sthm

Sure thing!
This is a great news for Android Developers. We don't need to open emulator anymore. I hope the install time won't take long.
But is it support apk
@@sriram.b5242 Yes it supports apk installations via adb which is pretty standard when developing and sideloading apps for development.
If I have a apk, how do I install it on the Windows 11?
your video presentation in mind blowing.
I was waiting for this one like ages, thanks Kevin....this is super amazing feature win11 has😁
thanks ! i also like your magic mouse cuz that one really help me, thanks again ❤
Glad to hear that!

over a year later... it's still not in the non-insider version of Windows 11.

Thank You, Kevin! I love your videos and your style as well. What about sideloading Android apps? Is it going to be ever available?
It is going to be available, but I don't really know if it is at the moment
Enable developer mode in WSA settings, have ADB (android debug bridge) and apk file.
Go to folder where you have ADB.
Connect to emulator by using address it Will provide in settings to you
adb connect
If it Fails open any app to start WSA and repeat
And Now you can install
adb install

Hi Kevin Stratvert but can you also run app from the google play store as well? or just amazon app store
Google play store won't work untill someone figures out a way to get Google play services to run on windows subsystem for Android (WSA)
and like that... you give your data to all Amazon customers !!!!! NIIICCCEEEEE
