There are a few others here who enjoy tinkering with various operating systems and also enjoy various Android Apps and Games. I have been using BlueStacks for years to run Android Apps on Windows 10. When Windows 11 became able to run Android apps using the Windows Subsystem for Android... I noticed that it was a better overall user's experience. This was especially true after installing the Google Play Store.

I run Windows 11 from an external "Windows To Go" external NVMe SSD. I posted directions on how to do that months ago, and can post links if people are interested in that. It is more convenient for me to run Android Apps using Windows 10 and there are definite performance advantages as compared to Bluestacks depending on the app or game. Of course not every Android App will run using this system.

Google had a sale that ended last week on their “Play Pass” for $.50 a month for three months. This allows you to use over a thousands of games and apps found on the Google Play store that usually cost a little for free. I am not an accomplished computer game player, but I do like some of the older games. And of course, my grandkids love some of the Android games on Android that actually cost money.

So I was wasting time this evening playing Beach Buggy Racing and some drone simulator flying games for free. Android Games and Apps are typically inexpensive compared to other platforms. But my old eyes prefer to play them on a big screen. I thought maybe there might be a few others here who might enjoy the same thing.

I run BlueStacks Android emulator in Windows with the EseeCloud Android app to access my security cameras. I also install the app on my Android phone to access them from anywhere.

Windows and Android ... PING!

You can find all the Windows Ping list threads with FR search: just search on keyword "windowspinglist".

Somebody please tell me how to port my Fallout Shelter game from one (temporary) Android phone to another (it’s got such a high score)

It’s like when I played Frogger in high school at the pizza shop....
