Help me, I am having problems with the MagiskOnWSA Builds

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%\Packages\MicrosoftCorporationII.WindowsSubsystemForAndroid_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\diagnostics\logcat

Can I delete the installed folder?

  • No.

How can I update Windows Subsystem For Android™ to a new version?

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?

Can I switch between OpenGApps and MindTheGapps?

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.
