TL;DR Summary

Microsoft announced the deprecation of Windows Subsystem for Android (WSA) on Windows 11, effective March 5, 2025, rendering Amazon Appstore on Windows 11 and all WSA-reliant apps unsupported. Amazon has accelerated this by discontinuing Amazon Appstore for Windows 11 on March 6, 2024, a year ahead of WSA's end. Despite the lack of Google Play support, users can still use existing Amazon Appstore apps until 2025, but alternatives like BlueStacks may offer better options for running Android apps on Windows 11.
