Caution

Hello. Before you proceed to install WSA, it is important to note that WSA has been having some issues for the past year, where GApps builds have begun crashing on all Windows 11 builds after June 2025.

Fixes and upgrades are being worked on to resolve all bugs and crashes (in the form of #700).


If you are affecting by this issue, try these current workarounds in the meantime:

  • RECOMMENDED FIX FOR BUILDS CONTAINING GAPPS (Google Play Store and Services): #593 (comment)

  • OR
  • Switch/Use the builds which do not contain GApps. These are the builds that contain NoGApps in their .7z archive names.

  • Really old builds of WSA (2211/2210) are known to be working.


Visit #593 for updates and discussions regarding the issue.

Tip

To view the bugfixes and improvements that are currently being worked on, and the current state of the WSABuilds project, refer to the corresponding project page

Requirements

Windows Build Number

Windows™ 11: Build 22000.526 or higher. Windows™ 10: 22H2 10.0.19045.2311 or higher.

May work on Windows™ 10: 20H1 10.0.19041.264 or higher.1

1. You may need to install KB5014032 then install KB5022834 to use WSA on these older Windows 10 builds

Custom/modfied Windows OS installations (such as ReviOS, Tiny 10/11 and Ghost Spectre etc.) may have issues with running WSA.

RAM

  • 4 to 6 GB (Not Recommended)

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™

Users with Intel HD Graphics 530 and older


WSA may not start or graphical glitches will occur when Intel HD Graphics 530 and Older iGPUs are used. This is a known issue, but unfortunately there are no fixes that I currently know of, plus, these GPUs are too old and do not meet Windows 11 requirements and hence are not official supported. Follow this guide to switch to another iGPU/dGPU/eGPU that you may have or Microsoft Basic Renderer

Users with Nvidia GPUs


Nvidia GPUs are known to cause problems. If Windows Subsystem For Android™ does not start or there are graphical glitches when an Nvidia GPU is used, follow this guide to switch to another iGPU/dGPU/eGPU that you may have or Microsoft Basic Renderer

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.
