Normally, when Microsoft kills a major Windows feature, it's a cause for consternation. Remember the brief moment when Paint 3D was supposed to replace Windows Paint? However, we just learned that Microsoft is dumping Windows Subsystem for Android, Windows 11's optional Android emulator and no one is going to miss it.
Without any fanfare, the company updated the Windows Subsystem for Android documentation page on its website and included a message stating that WSA won't be supported as of March 5, 2025. The Amazon App Store app, which is required to use and install WSA, is set to disappear from the Microsoft Store as soon as March 6, 2024. However, according to Amazon, users will still be able to download it from a dedicated link. And anyone who has WSA installed may be able to continue using it even after the end of support.
