Builds Last Updated:
— 08/09/2023 11:20 GMT (Reason: Initial Release)
Information:
For anyone updating from a previous WSA Build, please backup your Userdata VHDX using this guide, in the case that the builds in this release do not work as intended (crashes, bugs or not working), so that you can revert to the old version if needs be.
Please rename the folder (after extraction) to a shorter name, for example WSA
. This will help you avoid the potential issues that may occur during installation and after install.
Warning
Read the guide in full before installing. Ensure you meet the full requirements for an installation on Windows 11.
Note
If you’re updating WSA, merge the folders and replace the files for all items when asked
Follow these steps to install on Windows 11.
Note :
If you have the official WSA installed, you must completely uninstall it to use MagiskOnWSA
- Extract the .7z archive using 7-zip (recommended) and rename the extracted folder to
WSA
- Delete the .7z archive (It is recommended to keep the .7z archive until WSA has been installed and is working properly)
- 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
- Open the WSA folder and double-click Run.bat
Notice:
- As stated in the Requirements, You can only install WSA on a NTFS partition, not on an exFAT partition.
- You can NOT delete the WSA installation folder.
WhatAdd-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 WSA.
Check https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/appx/add-appxpackage?view=windowsserver2022-ps for more details. - You need to register your WSA appx package before you can run WSA.
For WSABuilds and MagiskOnWSALocal users, you need to runRun.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 WSA directory.
- Run
Add-AppxPackage -ForceApplicationShutdown -ForceUpdateFromAnyVersion -Register .\AppxManifest.xml
in PowerShell.
This should fail with an ActivityID, which is a UUID required for the next step. - Run
Get-AppPackageLog -ActivityID <UUID>
in PowerShell.
This should print the log of the failed operation. - Check the log for the reason of failure and fix it.

Несколько дней назад Microsoft начала тестирование подсистемы Windows Subsystem for Android (WSA), которая позволяет запускать Android-приложения в Windows 11.
Сейчас функция доступна только участникам программы Windows Insider на канале Beta, что несколько удивительно, так как обычно все новшества вначале появляются на канале Dev. Но даже если вы используете канал Beta, то для установки подсистемы из Microsoft Store потребуется сменить регион на США в самой Windows 11.
Microsoft обещает, что инсайдеры на канале Dev также вскоре получат доступ к Windows Subsystem for Android, но какие-либо конкретные сроки не называются. Если вы не хотите ждать, то можете установить подсистему вручную. Для этого вам потребуются прямые руки и небольшие навыки работы в PowerShell.
Важно! Все действия вы делаете на свой страх и риск.
Благодарим aleks242007 и участников чата Community в Telegram за помощь в составлении инструкции.
Инструкция
Установка Windows Subsystem for Android
- Для начала убедитесь, что ваш компьютер поддерживает виртуализацию. Для этого откройте «Диспетчер задач», перейдите на вкладку «Производительность», выберите CPU и посмотрите текст под графиком. Там должно было указано: «Виртуализация: Включено».
- Если виртуализация отключена, то вам необходимо включить её в BIOS. У разных производителей настройка может располагаться в разных разделах и называться по-разному, так что можно поискать информацию в Google для вашего конкретного устройства.
- Если в BIOS настройка отсутствует или значение в «Диспетчере задач» не меняется, то вы вряд ли сможете запустить Windows Subsystem for Android на своём компьютере.
- Следом откройте меню «Пуск», введите в поле поиска «Включение или отключение компонентов Windows» и выберите соответствующий результат.
- В открывшемся окне установите галочку напротив пункта «Платформа виртуальной машины», нажмите «ОК», дождитесь применения изменений и перезагрузите ПК.
- Далее нам потребуется скачать установщик Windows Subsystem for Android в формате MSIXBUNDLE с сервера Microsoft Store:
- Перейдите на сайт Microsoft Store — Generation Project (от rgadguard) по этой ссылке.
- В поле на сайте вставьте следующую ссылку:
https://www.microsoft.com/store/productId/9P3395VX91NR
- Справа от поля в выпадающем меню выберите Slow и нажмите на галочку.
- В появившемся списке найдите файл с примерно таким названием (номер версии может отличаться):
MicrosoftCorporationII.WindowsSubsystemForAndroid_1.7.32815.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe.msixbundle
- Нажмите на название этого файла и сохраните файл в любой папке на вашем компьютере. Обратите внимание, что файл должен быть в формате .MSIXBUNDLE. Если это не так, то просто смените расширение файла на нужное. Файл должен весить примерно 1,2 ГБ.
- Запустите PowerShell или Windows Terminal (нужна вкладка с PowerShell) от имени администратора.
- Введите в консоль следующую команду:
Add-AppxPackage -Path "C:\Users\user1\Desktop\MyApp.msix"
- «C:\Users\user1\Desktop\MyApp.msix» — путь к файлу MSIXBUNDLE, сохранённому на шаге 4. Чтобы быстро его получить, вы можете нажать правой кнопкой мыши по файлу в «Проводнике» и выбрать пункт «Копировать как путь».
- Решение ошибки:
Add-AppxPackage: The ‘Add-AppxPackage’ command was found in the module ‘Appx’, but the module could not be loaded. For more information, run ‘Import-Module Appx’.
Если вы увидели такое сообщение в PowerShell, то введите следующую команду:
Import-Module Appx -UseWindowsPowerShell
После этого вновь введите команду Add-AppxPackage из шага 6.
- Нажмите Enter и дождитесь завершения установки.
- Если всё прошло успешно, то в меню «Пуск» появится приложение под названием Windows Subsystem for Android.
Установка APK-файлов
Теперь подсистема Windows Subsystem for Android работает, однако с установкой приложений есть некоторые сложности. Как вы уже знаете, вместо Google Play здесь используется Amazon Appstore. Причём отображаются там лишь приложения, которые Microsoft и Amazon протестировали на работоспособность в подсистеме.
Правда воспользоваться Amazon Appstore всё равно не получится. Приложение не только требует учётную запись Amazon, но и проверяет ваше местоположение. Можно, конечно, подключить VPN, но есть ли в этом смысл?
К счастью, Windows Subsystem for Android поддерживает установку приложений с помощью APK-файлов. Вы можете воспользоваться либо утилитой WSATools, о которой мы рассказали в статье по этой ссылке, либо устанавливать вручную с помощью командной строки по инструкции ниже.
- Скачайте SDK Platform Tools для Windows с сайта Android, перейдя по этой ссылке.
- Извлеките папку
platform-tools
, например, в корень диска C (рядом с папками Windows, Program Files и т. д.) - Откройте приложение Windows Subsystem for Android и включите «Режим разработчика».
- Нажмите на кнопку рядом с элементом «Файлы». Начнётся запуск подсистемы Windows Subsystem for Android.
- Нажмите на кнопку «Обновить» рядом с элементом «IP-адрес».
- В описании для элемента «Режим разработчика» появится IP-адрес, который мы будем использовать для подключения к подсистеме с помощью ADB.
- Откройте командную строку (или Windows Terminal) и перейдите в папку с установленным SDK Platform Tools, подставив нужный путь к папке:
cd C:\platform-tools
- Введите следующую команду, подставив в неё IP-адрес из предыдущего пункта:
adb.exe connect 127.0.0.1:58526
Примечание. Если выполнять команды через PowerShell, то перед ADB следует прописать ./
- Убедитесь, что результат в командной строке примерно такой, как на скриншоте ниже:
- Скачайте APK-файл нужного Android-приложения, например, воспользовавшись сервисом APKMirror.
- В командной строке выполните следующую команду, подставив в неё путь к скачанному APK-файлу:
adb.exe install edge.apk
Чтобы быстро скопировать путь к файлу, нажмите по нему правой кнопкой мыши и выберите «Копировать как путь». Затем вставьте его после adb.exe install и нажмите Enter.
- Дождитесь надписи «Success» в командной строке.
- Если всё прошло успешно, то ярлык установленного приложения должен появиться в меню «Пуск». Установленные приложения запускаются так же, как и приложения для Windows, то есть простым нажатием по иконке в меню «Пуск».
Поделиться впечатлениями о работе Windows Subsystem for Android и обсудить сценарии её использования вы можете в нашем чате в Telegram. Там же можете задавать вопросы, если возникли какие-либо сложности с установкой подсистемы или Android-приложений.
Поскольку далеко не все Android-приложения корректно работают в подсистеме, пользователи решили составить таблицу с информацией о работоспособности приложений в WSA. Найти и внести свой вклад вы можете на GitHub.
UPD: Возможна установка и на Release билды Windows 11. Регион не имеет значения. Спасибо за проверку @De Lancre
Вторая часть статьи:
Вчера (20.10.2021) Microsoft официально выпустила Windows Subsystem for Android, который позволил пользователям Windows 11 устанавливать приложения из Amazon Appstore (на самом деле, можно устанавливать совершенно любые Android-приложения, но про это уже в другой статье).
Однако, нововведение получили только участники канала Beta обновлений, то есть канал Dev, который по логике должен был получить его уже давно, остался на данный момент ни с чем.
UPD: Способ работает и на стабильных (Release) версиях Windows 11.
Данное недоразумение достаточно легко решить и вот шаги, которые помогут вам достичь цели:
Скачиваем .msixbundle (установщик)
Из Microsoft Store нам напрямую никак не удастся получить его, так что нужно прибегнуть к некоторой хитрости — мы скачаем этот пакет прямой ссылкой, без всяких магазинов.
Если браузер будет выдавать ошибку при открытии ссылки, то удостоверьтесь, что он не использует Always HTTPS.
Зеркало:
Устанавливаем его
Казалось бы, что только и нужно нажать и оно спокойно установится, но нет. Установщик пакетов выдаст ошибку.
Поэтому мы должны использовать консоль Powershell. Её надо запустить от имени администратора и ввести следующую команду:
add-appxpackage <путь до .msixbundle пакета>
Теперь всё устанавливается и нам остаётся подождать пару минут.
И вот мы попадаем в заветное меню
Для доступа к файловой системе Android необходимо нажать на кнопку Files.
…но тут приключения не заканчиваются
Хотели мы уже наконец во всю начать пользоваться новыми возможностями, но вот незадача — ошибочка появляется…
Собственно, для соответствия требованиям, показанным в ошибке, нам потребуется:
1) Включить Virtual Machine Platform в optionalfeatures (можно вбить в поиск по приложениям и оно покажет нужный пункт)
2) Включить виртуализацию в BIOS вашей материнской платы.
Тут общего решения нет — материнки у всех разные, так что из решений только могу предложить гугление того, где находится виртуализация конкретно у вас.
И вот теперь уже всё точно работает!
«Откуда взять Amazon Appstore?»
Amazon Appstore автоматически появится в системе как только вы впервые успешно запустите субсистему (без ошибки о выключенной виртуализации, которая была разобрана выше).
Удалить его будет нельзя, ибо он утащит за собой субсистему заодно, о чём предупредит перед удалением.
Как вы уже могли понять по снимку экрана выше, на WSfA можно поставить свои приложения. Использовать их получается без лишних зависаний (!), но с некоторыми ограничениями (одно из главных — доступ к файловой системе у них фактически полностью обрезан).
Про установку различных приложений, встреченные проблемы и даже неожиданные открытия следующая статья:
В Windows 11 вы можете использовать Windows Subsystem for Android (WSA) для установки и запуска Android приложений. Windows Subsystem для Android работает по аналогии с WSL (Windows Subsystem для Linux). Ядро Android устанавливается в виде легкой виртуальной машины и не требует установки роли Hyper-V. На данный момент подсистема Windows для Android официально доступна только для участников Windows Insiders. Однако вы можете установить Windows Subsystem for Android и на обычном образе Windows 11.
Установка в Windows Subsystem for Android в Windows 11
Чтобы установить виртуальную машину с Android, ваш компьютер должен поддерживать аппаратную виртуализацию Intel VT (Intel Virtualization Technology) или AMD-V. Проверьте, что она включена в BIOS/UEFI.
Можно проверить поддержку виртуализации в Windows такой командой PowerShell:
Get-ComputerInfo -property "HyperV*"
HyperVRequirementDataExecutionPreventionAvailable : True HyperVRequirementSecondLevelAddressTranslation : True HyperVRequirementVirtualizationFirmwareEnabled : True HyperVRequirementVMMonitorModeExtensions : True
В нашем примере виртуализации поддерживаются и включены.
Также рекомендуется как минимум 8 Гб RAM на компьютере для нормальной работы Android подсистемы и приложений.
Установите компонент Windows VirtualMachinePlatform (понадобится перезагрузка):
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName VirtualMachinePlatform
Теперь нужно скачать установочный файл Windows Subsystem for Android в формате MSIXBUNDLE из Microsoft Store. Ранее мы показывали, как скачать установочный APPX файл любого приложения из Microsoft Store. Здесь все действия выполняются аналогично.
- Перейдите на https://store.rg-adguard.net/ (этот сервис позволяет получить прямые ссылки на установочные файлы приложений в Microsoft Store);
- Вставьте в поле поиска URL ссылку
https://www.microsoft.com/store/productId/9P3395VX91NR
и выберите Slow; - Найдите в списке
MicrosoftCorporationII.WindowsSubsystemForAndroid_1.8.32828.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe.msixbundle
и скачайте файл (1.2 Гб); - Откройте Windows Terminal и выполните следующую команду для установки файла msixbundle:
Add-AppxPackage -Path "C:\Users\root\Downloads\MicrosoftCorporationII.WindowsSubsystemForAndroid_1.8.32828.0_neutral___8wekyb3d8bbwe.Msixbundle"
- После этого в стартовом меню Windows 11 появится пункт Windows Subsystem for Android Settings.
Установка приложений Android в Windows 11
Теперь вы можете установить приложения Android. На данный момент установка Android приложений доступна только с американских IP адресов для инсайдеров Windows 11 в канале Beta и только через Amazon AppStore (устанавливается вместе с WSA). Ограничений довольно много….
Но вы можете установить любую программу Android с помощью APK файла в режиме отладки.
Чтобы скачать APK файл любого приложения из Google Play, скопируйте его URL адрес. В этом примере я хочу скачать FBReader (привычная мне fb2/epub читалка для Android).
Перейдите на сайт http://apps.evozi.com/apk-downloader/ , вставьте URL адрес приложения в Google Play и нажмите Generate Download Link. Скачайте установочный apk файл приложения на диск.
Скачайте Android SDK Platform для Windows (https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools ) и распакуйте в каталог C:\tools\platform-tools.
Включите режим разработчика (Developer Mode) в настройках Windows Subsystem for Android. Нажмите на кнопку Refresh в поле IP address и дождитесь, пока вашему инстансу будет присвоен IP адрес. Скопируйте его (иногда он указан вместе с портом в формате 127.0.0.1:58526).
Откройте консоль PowerShell и перейдите в каталог с Android SDK:
cd C:\tools\platform-tools
Подключитесь к виртуальной машине Android по полученному ранее IP адресу:
./adb.exe connect 172.17.66.80
connected to 172.17.66.80:5555
Убедитесь, что вы подключены только к одному устройству Android:
adb devices
Для установки приложения Android из полученного ADK файла, выполните команду:
./adb install "C:\Users\root\Downloads\org.geometerplus.zlibrary.ui.android_3003500_apps.evozi.com.apk"
После этого ярлык приложения Android появится списке установленных программ в стартовом меню Windows. Запустите его.
В моем случае программа FBreader в видит только свою эмулированную файловую систему Android. Чтобы скопировать файл (книгу) в каталог books на Android, нужно опять воспользоваться adk:
./adb push "C:\Users\root\Downloads\Mark-Twain-adv-Huckleberry Finn.epub"/storage/emulated/0/books
Epub файл теперь доступен в из приложений Android.
Чтобы скопировать файл из Android в Windows, используется команда adb pull:
adb pull "/storage/emulated/0/books/file.fb2 C:\Users\root\Downloads
При анонсе Windows 11 Майкрософт пообещала возможность запуска Android приложений в новой операционной системе. На момент релиза функция была недоступна, затем появилась в предварительных версиях системы, теперь же доступна всем пользователям.
В этой инструкции пошагово о том, как включить Windows Subsystem for Android в Windows 11, установить Android приложения и дополнительная информация, которая может оказаться полезной в контексте рассматриваемой темы. Также может быть полезным: Лучшие эмуляторы Android для Windows.
Установка Windows Subsystem for Android (WSA, Подсистема Windows для Android)
Все описанные действия по установке Подсистемы Windows для Android актуальны на момент написания статьи: вероятнее всего в скором времени процесс будет проще.
Необходимые шаги для установки Windows Subsystem for Android или WSA в Windows 11:
- Установите накопительное обновление KB5010414 через Центр обновления Windows, если вы этого еще не сделали.
- Для того, чтобы WSA могла работать, необходимо, чтобы на компьютере была включена виртуализация. Среди прочих требований — наличие SSD. Мне неизвестно, насколько критичен последний пункт при ручной установке Windows Subsystem for Android, к которой мы прибегнем далее.
- Зайдите в Панель управления (для её открытия можно использовать поиск в панели задач) — Программы и компоненты, откройте пункт «Включение или отключение компонентов Windows», включите компонент «Платформа виртуальной машины», установите его и перезагрузите компьютер. Подробнее: Как установить дополнительные компоненты Windows 11 и Windows 10.
- Следующий шаг — установка приложения Windows Subsystem for Android, которое устанавливается при установке Amazon Appstore из магазина Microsoft Store. Сейчас приложение доступно лишь пользователям из США (но проверьте, возможно, к моменту, когда вы читаете этот материал, это уже не так), поэтому придется использовать обходной путь: зайдите на сайт https://store.rg-adguard.net/
- В пункте слева выберите «ProductId», в поле ввода данных введите 9p3395vx91nr и нажмите кнопку с изображением «галочки» справа. Внизу отобразится список доступных файлов для загрузки, требуется скачать файл размером более одного гигабайта в конце списка с именем
MicrosoftCorporationII.WindowsSubsystemForAndroid_НОМЕР_ВЕРСИИ_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe.msixbundle
- Загруженный файл не получится установить просто запустив его. Для установки откройте Терминал Windows от имени администратора (правый клик по кнопке Пуск и выбрать нужный пункт в контекстном меню), а затем используйте команду
Add-AppxPackage полный_путь_к_скачанному_файлу
Путь можно скопировать, нажав правой кнопкой по файлу и выбрав соответствующий пункт в контекстном меню. Если путь содержит пробелы, возьмите его в кавычки.
В результате выполнения указанных действий WSA или Подсистема Windows для Android будет установлена на компьютере, а в списке доступных приложений появится приложение «Параметры подсистемы Windows для Android».
После запуска подсистемы Windows для Android (первый раз можно быстро запустить, открыв пункт «Файлы» в параметрах подсистемы Windows для Android), на компьютере также будет установлено приложение Amazon AppStore — стандартный метод установки Android-приложений в Windows 11.
Установка Android приложений в Windows 11
Стандартный метод установки Android приложений в Windows 11 — Amazon AppStore, однако на текущий момент (если ситуация изменится, и вы заметите это раньше меня, пожалуйста, напишите в комментариях), после входа в приложение вы увидите уведомление о том, что оно недоступно в нашей стране:
Поэтому придется использовать один из следующих методов.
Ручная установка Android-приложений в WSA с помощью adb.exe
Первый метод — использовать команды adb.exe для установки приложений из файлов APK вручную. Порядок действий:
- Скачайте инструменты командной строки platform-tools, включая adb.exe и распакуйте в удобную папку на вашем компьютере, рекомендую брать отсюда: https://adbinstaller.com/ — в этом варианте будет загружено только самое необходимое.
- Шаги 2-4 можно не выполнять, если вы готовы указывать полный путь к adb.exe в командной строке. Нажмите клавиши Win+R на клавиатуре, введите sysdm.cpl и нажмите Enter. Перейдите на вкладку «Дополнительно» и нажмите кнопку «Переменные среды».
- Выберите переменную Path (для пользователя, если требуется использование только текущим пользователем или в разделе «Системные переменные» для всей системы» и нажмите «Изменить».
- Нажмите «Создать» и добавьте путь к папке с файлом adb.exe в системную переменную Path.
- Откройте приложение «Параметры подсистемы Windows для Android», включите пункт «Режим разработчика». Если сама WSA не запущена, запустите её (например, откройте пункт «Файлы» вверху окна, после открытия можно закрыть). Обратите внимание на пункт «IP-адрес» в параметрах, скопируйте его (если адрес не отображается, нажмите кнопку «Обновить» после запуска подсистемы Windows для Android).
- Скачайте нужные вам приложения Android в виде файлов APK, например вот так: Как скачать APK приложений Android.
- Запустите командную строку от имени Администратора (как запустить командную строку от администратора в Windows 11).
- Введите команду adb connect IP-адрес (где IP-адрес — адрес WSA из 5-го шага).
- Используйте команды adb install путь_к_файлу_apk для установки приложений Android. Успешно установленные приложения будут добавляться в меню Пуск Windows 11.
Не все приложения исправно работают: некоторые будут сообщать об ошибках или необходимости установки из Google Play (по всей видимости, из-за отсутствия Google Play Services). Но некоторые работают очень хорошо:
Даже работающие приложения не всегда делают это вполне исправно, среди замеченных проблем — неправильная отрисовка текстового контента в браузерах.
WSATools
В магазине Microsoft Store вы можете найти приложение WSATools, которое призвано облегчить установку приложений Android в Windows 11. Всё что требуется — указать файл APK устанавливаемого Android приложения, а всё остальное программа должна выполнить автоматически, в том числе — скачать и установить adb.exe при необходимости.
Однако в моем тесте установка в актуальной не Preview версии Windows 11 не удалась: экземпляр adb.exe, скачиваемый WSATools отказывается запускаться, а при ручной установке adb.exe, приложение либо зависает, либо «не видит» установленного adb.
