JAKARTA Some time ago, Microsoft revealed that they would remove the subsystem for Android. With this deletion, the Android app would not be able to operate. At that time, Microsoft revealed to Engadget that they only wanted to deliver the best experience and application on Windows. However, this answer still does not explain the detailed reasons for the deletion of the system. A Microsoft employee, on platform X, provides a more detailed explanation behind the closure of the Windows Android Subsystem (SWA). Production Management LeaderWindows Andrew Clinic says that SWA should be eliminated due to the problem of funds. SWA is indeed part of the Windows operating system, but the management of the funds is made to rotate by Microsoft. The team that manages the feature is paid using revenue from Amazon Appstore, but the apps from its store are still very few. "The store's income pays WSA's bills and salaries. WSL generates Azure and has a profit center. WSA without the store is extraordinary but does not help windowing financially," said Clinic to WSA users.

Meanwhile, another post from Clinick mentions that Microsoft wants Google to bring their app to Windows. Unfortunately, this hope never happened. In fact, Google could increase the profit of the WSA. Microsoft may give up on that hope so they can withdraw the WSA service. Although this subsystem is very useful for all Windows users, it makes sense that Microsoft decided to remove the support. "Goodbye. WSA is an extraordinary project to work on, but it doesn't matter how cool the technology is if you don't have an app in the store," wrote Clinic.
