  • WSAGAScript

    Scripts to install Google Apps into a WSA image. Plus optional root

  • You can however use the open source project(s) they're mentioned that they used in the making of the said images to build it yourself (or on GitHub, using the GitHub actions script) after auditing the project source and decide whether you trust the said project, GitHub and/or yourself in this process. This unofficial version too is updateable (you install the new one by running the new one's installation script in the unpacked location and your userdata.vhdx file persists if one already exists - yes, you can switch from the Store version to this one by backing up your userdata.vhdx file prior to uninstalling the Store version).

  • Magisk

    The Magic Mask for Android

  • These open source projects pull the latest original WSA packages from Microsoft, unpack the system images, add a Open GApps package ("open" as in the process of creating that package is open source, even if the Google apps themselves are not) and/or Magisk if you choose to, repack the images, build the Windows installable package.

  • WorkOS
