Builds Last Updated:

- 06/08/2023 09:00 GMT (Reason: Initial Release)

Information:
For anyone updating from a previous WSA Build, please backup your Userdata VHDX using this guide, in the case that the builds in this release do not work as intended (crashes, bugs or not working), so that you can revert to the old version if needs be.

Please rename the folder (after extraction) to a shorter name, for example WSA. This will help you avoid the potential issues that may occur during installation and after install.

Warning

Read the guide in full before installing. Ensure you meet the full requirements for an installation on Windows 11.

Note

If you're updating WSA, merge the folders and replace the files for all items when asked

Follow these steps to install on Windows 11.

Note : If you have the official WSA installed, you must completely uninstall it to use MagiskOnWSA

1. Extract the .7z archive using 7zip (recommended) and rename the extracted folder to WSA
2. Delete the .7z archive (It is recommended to keep the .7z archive until WSA has been installed and is working properly)
3. Move the newly extracted folder to a suitable location (Documents folder is a good choice), as you will need to keep the folder on your PC to use MagiskOnWSA
4. Open the WSA folder and double-click Run.bat

Notice:

1. As stated in the Requirements, You can only install WSA on a NTFS partition, not on an exFAT partition.
2. You can NOT delete the WSA installation folder. What Add-AppxPackage -Register .\AppxManifest.xml does is to register an appx package with some existing unpackaged files, so you need to keep them as long as you want to use WSA. Check https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/appx/add-appxpackage?view=windowsserver2022-ps for more details.
3. You need to register your WSA appx package before you can run WSA. For WSABuilds and MagiskOnWSALocal users, you need to run Run.bat in the extracted dir. If the script fails, you can take the following steps for diagnosis (admin privilege required):
   1. Open a PowerShell window and change working directory to your WSA directory.
   2. Run Add-AppxPackage -ForceApplicationShutdown -ForceUpdateFromAnyVersion -Register .\AppxManifest.xml in PowerShell. This should fail with an ActivityID, which is a UUID required for the next step.
   3. Run Get-AppPackageLog -ActivityID <UUID> in PowerShell. This should print the log of the failed operation.
   4. Check the log for the reason of failure and fix it.
