Issues:

• Install.ps1 is not recognized/found
  

• Some files are missing in the folder

   

Solution

If the popup windows disappear without asking administrative permission and Windows Subsystem For Android™ is not installed successfully, you should manually run Install.ps1 as administrator:

 

1. Redownload the WSA Build and rename the extracted folder to a shorter name, which can be anything to your choosing

• For example:

  • Before: WSA_2XXX.XXXXXXX_XXXX_Release-Nightly-with-magisk-XXXXXXX-XXXXXX-MindTheGapps-XX.X-RemovedAmazon

  • After: WSAArchive2XXX

2. Copy the path of the folder by right clicking on the folder and select "Show More Options" and click on "Copy as path"

3. Press Win + X on your keyboard and select Windows™ Terminal (Admin) or Powershell (Admin) depending on the version of Windows™ you are running

4. Input the command below and press enter, replacing {X:\path\to\your\extracted\folder} including the {} with the path of the extracted folder

  cd "{X:\path\to\your\extracted\folder}"

5. Input the command below and press enter

  PowerShell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\Install.ps1

6. The script will run and Windows Subsystem For Android™ will be installed
