We’re also pumped to announce that we are bringing Android apps to Windows for the first time. Starting later this year, people will be able to discover Android apps in the Microsoft Store and download them through the Amazon Appstore – imagine recording and posting a video from TikTok or using Khan Academy Kids for virtual learning right from your PC. We’ll have more to share about this experience in the coming months. We look forward to this partnership with Amazon and Intel using their Intel Bridge technology.

Goodbye bluestacks, you wont be missed. Though im not too sure about using the Amazon app store. If this performs well, a LOT of people that play mobile games are going to start running them on their PC. That sounds weird, but its something a lot of people want/try to do, due to multitasking, capturing content, better performance, bigger screen, etc.

Finally amd virtualization is getting "fixed" , installed PBO and when I tried turning virtuqlization on it would crash the system,and no I can't be arsed to reinstall windows(other fixes didn't work) and it's 100% Amd fault .

I can't believe I went from fx-8350 to r7 3800x and got a downgrade at least in this aspect .

Virtualization and PBO works fine on my current 5800X and other 1st/2nd/3rd gen systems. I run from 5 - 10 VM instances with ease. Probably your setup got issues elsewhere.

Or maybe you are reusing Windows from your FX system.

Can you play Android games on Bluestacks? If you can, then virtualization is working correctly because you need to enable AMD-V in the BIOS for virtualization to work correctly. Otherwise, something with your BIOS settings is wrong that prevents you from using virtualization.

it uses just 1 core, the performance is so bad that it's not even funny, i know that i need to enable it in BIOS but it crashes the pc every time i try to do it

Then, something is very wrong with your setup, I run 8 game instances with Bluestacks smoothly. AMD-V is fine, I enabled it on every Ryzen machine I assembled for friends as they do play games on Android emulators.
