Does bluestacks emulator support Windows 7?

Postby kat82 » 29 May 2025, 11:36

I successfully downloaded Bluestacks emulator and installed it on my Windows 7. But running it made the machine stuck and unable to process anything. Just wondering if anyone has ever used Bluestacks on Windows 7 operating system.

If it is Win 10 and above, I am left out until I am able to upgrade. I currently using low end machine since that is in my capacity.

I have good memory and CPU but looks it's not supported by the app which is why it hangs

Why don't you try other emulators? If you need something for Google Play, Google offer their product: Google Play Games Beta.
Here is topic about it

And sooner than later, Windows 11 will also loose updates and support. Just imagine someone like me who is still using Win 7!!

Indeed a strategy to retire and make you buy. This is like phones and OS. For as long as mine still works for my basics, I won't need that I think.
