Anyone Here Have an Android Emulator on Their PC?

[officerripley]

So I've just started having trouble with a Microsoft Store game (Skip-Bo Solitaire) I've had for a while on my PC. It keeps freezing. I've tried repairing it, re-setting it, and reinstalling it; have made sure both it and the MS Store app are the latest versions but no luck. So I search online and Android makes a version of the game but to play it on a PC, you have to install an Android emulator app; does anyone have one of those installed on their PC? I've heard about Bluestacks and MEmu, that they;re both supposed to be good. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

I would try Bluestacks. It is free and Livewire's review is very positive.

How to Use BlueStacks to Run Android Apps on Windows
Unlike a whole-OS emulator, BlueStacks emulates just Android apps on Windows. It’s really easy to use, so you don’t need to know anything about emulators or even Android to get your apps up and running.

Google Play is built-in, so just install the apps you want through the app store, and then open their shortcuts like you would on a mobile device.

If you're looking for an emulator that lets you quickly install an Android app on your PC, you can't go wrong with this one.

BlueStacks cost - Google Search

Officerripley,

Usually, when you get a problem with a programme, the
easy way to help it, is to hold down the "CTRL" key at the
left of the keyboard, that forces lots of programmes to be
reset to its default settings.

Wow, thanks, Mike, that worked great! And it's an easy fix too.

I had the Windows Android emulator. It was slow and of limited value. It was also huge, about 700 Mb. I just deleted it a few days ago.

I am only too pleased to be able to help, I am glad that you
can read minds, I didn't write to hold the CTRL key down,
while you start the programme.

Well done.

Mike.

NO! Anything to do with Google is avoided if possible.
