Microsoft this week released the first major update for the release version of Windows 11, which brought with it support for Android applications, although officially it is only available in the United States. The Windows Subsystem for Android comes with the Amazon Appstore, which gives you access to over a thousand Android apps. However, no one forbids installing applications using APK files.
