🖥️Run on Windows Subsystem for Android

Intro

Microsoft is ending support for the WSA on March 5, 2025. Until then, CoinGet/CoinSend will remain usable on WSA and we are working on an alternative to allow our applications to run on a desktop environment.

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.

• Architecture: x64, Arm64

• Memory: 8GB (Minimum), 16GB (Recommended)

• SSD Storage Space: 256GB or above

Setting up Windows environment
