Integrate Magisk root and Google Apps into WSA (Windows Subsystem for Android) with GitHub Actions
AGPL-3.0 License
❗ Important: DO NOT FORK
|
---|
This repository is designed specifically not to be forked. MagiskOnWSA and some of the various forks and clones that have sprung up on the platform (potentially) violate GitHub's Terms of Service due to abuse of GitHub Actions and have been ultimately warned, disabled or banned. |
Therefore, don't fork this repository unless you're a developer and want to modify the code itself and/or want to contribute to this Github repository. |
If you want to create your Custom Build, please follow the instructions set out clearly, to avoid the repo from being taken down as a result of a misuse of Github Actions due to the large number of forks. AND ALSO if you want to build with Latest Insider version, please skip the first 7 steps |
DO NOT download it via multithread downloaders like IDM
Note : If you have the official Windows Subsystem For Android installed, you must completely uninstall it to use MagiskOnWSA.
In case you want to preserve your data from the previous installation (official or MagiskOnWSA), you can backup
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\MicrosoftCorporationII.WindowsSubsystemForAndroid_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\userdata.vhdx
before uninstallation and restore it after installation. For a more comprehensive and detailed guide, take a look at the Backup and Restore section in this README markdown
Note : If you want to download WSA with Magisk Delta, please go to and download the package from the Action.
Note : If you're updating WSA, merge the folders and replace the files for all items when asked
Open the Windows Subsystem For Android folder: Search for and double-click Run.bat
If you previously have a MagiskOnWSA installation, it will automatically uninstall the previous one while preserving all user data and install the new one, so don't worry about your data.
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:
Press Win+X
and select Windows Terminal (Admin)
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}"
Input the command below and press enter
PowerShell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\Install.ps1
The script will run and Windows Subsystem For Android will be installed
If this workaround does not work, your PC is not supported for WSA
Once the installation process completes, Windows Subsystem For Android will launch (if this is a first-time install, a window asking for consent to diagnositic information will be shown instead. Sometimes two identical windows will show, this is fine and nothing bad happens if you click OK in both windows)
Click on the PowerShell window, then press any key on the keyboard, the PowerShell window should close
Close File Explorer
Enjoy
Add-AppxPackage -Register .\AppxManifest.xml
does is to register an appx package with some existing unpackaged files,Run.bat
in the extracted dir.Open a PowerShell window and change working directory to your Windows Subsystem For Android directory.
Run the command below in PowerShell. This should fail with an ActivityID, which is a UUID required for the next step.
Add-AppxPackage -ForceApplicationShutdown -ForceUpdateFromAnyVersion -Register .\AppxManifest.xml
Run the command below in PowerShell. This should print the log of the failed operation.
Get-AppPackageLog -ActivityID <UUID>
Check the log for the reason of failure and fix it.

Note:
If you want to preseve your data, make a backup of the
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\MicrosoftCorporationII.WindowsSubsystemForAndroid_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\userdata.vhdx
file. After uninstalling, copy the VHDX file back to the%LOCALAPPDATA%\Package\MicrosoftCorporationII.WindowsSubsystemForAndroid_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache
folder. For a more comprehensive and detailed guide, take a look at the Backup and Restore section in this README markdown
To remove WSA installed:
1.) Make sure that Windows Subsystem For Android is not running
2.) Search for Windows Subsystem For Android Settings
using the built-in Windows Search, or through Add and Remove Programs and press uninstall
3.) Delete the WSA folder that extracted you extracted and Run.bat was run from to install WSA (MagiskOnWSA folder)
4.) Go to %LOCALAPPDATA%/Packages/
and delete the folder named MicrosoftCorporationII.WindowsSubsystemForAndroid_8wekyb3d8bbwe
To remove WSA installed from the Microsoft Store:
Windows Subsystem For Android Settings
using the built-in Windows Search, or through Add and Remove Programs and press uninstall
In order to make a backup of your WSA data you must copy the Userdata.vhdx (which includes, but is not limited Android Apps and their data, settings etc.), located at %LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\MicrosoftCorporationII.WindowsSubsystemForAndroid_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\userdata.vhdx
, to a safe location
Before attempting to restore your backup, you must remove WSA if installed. Then before you run the "Run.bat" script (to reinstall WSA after removing it), you need to remove these lines from Install.ps1:
Official Magisk:
Start-Process "wsa://com.topjohnwu.magisk"
Magisk Alpha:
Start-Process "wsa://io.github.vvb2060.magisk"
Magisk Delta:
Start-Process "wsa://io.github.huskydg.magisk"
Google Play Store:
Start-Process "wsa://com.android.vending"
Amazon Appstore:
Start-Process "wsa://com.amazon.venezia"
After running the script, do not run WSA at all, and go to %localappdata%\Packages and (if the folders do not exist, create them) in MicrosoftCorporationII.WindowsSubsystemForAndroid_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\ paste the userdata.vhdx
Now run WSA and your serdata should hopefully be restored
