# (Deprecated) Run on Windows Subsystem for Android

## Intro

{% hint style="danger" %}
Deprecated. Microsoft ended WSA support on March 5, 2025. This setup method is no longer supported. Use the Ubuntu Desktop guide instead — link below.

{% endhint %}

This guide advises on an alternative deemed the most stable and thoroughly tested by CoinsDo, for running CoinGet/CoinSend on an emulator. It doesn't imply that this is the sole method for running CoinGet/CoinSend on a desktop environment; you can still opt for other Android emulators you prefer.

## System requirements

* OS: Windows 11 version 22000.0 or higher
* Architecture: x64, Arm64
* Memory: 8GB (Minimum), 16GB (Recommended)
* Processor: Intel® Core™ i3 8th Generation, AMD Ryzen™ 3000, Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 8c, or above
* SSD Storage Space: 256GB or above

## Setting up Windows environment
