A C++ patch that enables Windows Subsystem for Android (WSA) to run on Windows 10 instead of requiring Windows 11. It works by patching icu.dll and AppxManifest.xml to bypass Windows 11 version checks.
Use cases
- run Android apps on Windows 10
- install WSA on unsupported Windows 10 versions
- bypass WSA Windows 11 requirement
- use Windows Subsystem for Android on Windows 10 22H2
- sideload WSA appx on Windows 10
When to choose
- you are on Windows 10 (2004+) and want to run WSA/Android apps
- you cannot upgrade to Windows 11 but need WSA
- you already build WSA packages with MagiskOnWSALocal
When to avoid
- you are on Windows 11 where WSA runs natively
- you want an officially supported Android solution
- you need a maintained solution after WSA's deprecation
- you are uncomfortable patching system DLLs and appx manifests
