Microsoft promised a major upgrade to Windows 11, and a few days ago, the company delivered on that promise. Among several other features brought with this February update, the launch of a preview version of the Amazon App Store is now available on the Microsoft Store. The Android app is now available for download on Windows 11 via the Amazon Appstore, but unfortunately, the feature is only available in the US at the moment. Microsoft has also released the minimum system requirements for running Android apps on Windows 11, with the company only recommending solid-state drives (SSDs) as the storage type. While there's no specific mention of SATA III or NVMe here, both should suffice. Here are the full requirements: RAM 8 GB (minimum) 16 GB (recommended) Storage type Solid state drive (SSD) Processor Intel Core i3 8th generation (minimum) or above AMD Ryzen 3000 (minimum) or above Qualcomm Snapdragon 8c ( Minimum) or above processor architecture x64 or ARM64 virtual machine platform needs to enable this setting. For more information, go to Enable virtualization on Windows 11 PCs. Interestingly, for Windows 11 itself, Microsoft didn't specify which storage method is preferred and just mentioned "64GB" as a requirement. It's as if Microsoft feels that running the Windows Subsystem on Android (WSA) might be a bit much for a spinning hard drive. Another interesting takeaway is the omission of Ryzen 2000 processors, as only Ryzen 3000 is listed in the requirements table above. Ryzen 2000 series CPUs (not Ryzen 2000 APUs) are based on the Zen microarchitecture, and Microsoft officially supports Windows 11.
The above is the detailed content of Microsoft only recommends SSDs for Android apps on Windows 11, not Ryzen 2000. For more information, please follow other related articles on the PHP Chinese website!
