Overview
Windroy is a lightweight, fast, and easy-to-use Android emulator that allows users of any knowledge level to boot and control Android 4.0 applications directly on their Windows desktop surface. With built-in tools for window scaling, customization of inputs, networking, and advanced graphics emulation, Windroy represents a capable android emulator that can be used for evaluation, direct app control, testing, debugging, and even consuming multimedia on both home PCs and laptops.
However, because it is based on now aged Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, its compatibility with the latest set of Android apps and games can at times look to be limited. Still, it offers stable and reliable emulation that can enable you to experience and take direct control over dozens of thousands of Android apps.
Installation and Use
Windroy comes in an installation package that is smaller than almost any other Android emulator. After a brief installation procedure which can be managed even by complete PC novices, the emulator will be ready for the first boot. After the app is loaded, you will be placed inside the emulated Android desktop of a custom tablet, with a landscape rendering and numerous tablet customization features that are present on the Android 4.0 platform. By default, the app launches in full-screen mode, but that can be changed using a bit of the complicated procedure inside the Environment Variables” section of the app. Because of the nature of this procedure, we do not recommend it for total PC novices who are not used to tweaking hidden settings of various PC apps.
Emulation of the Android software is quite fast and stable, and if you have experienced emulation issues on some other emulator platform, the chances are good that the app will offer you a more accurate reproduction of mobile apps. Emulation The app also supports keyboard and mouse controls, it can reproduce Flash content inside the mobile browser.
The process of installing applications in Windroy is not as streamlined as we would like. It does not support Play Store, and therefore out of the box automatic searching and downloading of apps will not work. But, you can sideload apps using manual install, which is a feature that many other Android emulator apps on PC do not support. To install APK files, you will have to allow apps to be installed from unknown sources.
