Windows Subsystem for Android Unable to run normally after the developer option is turned on

Question

Hello, my friend, the WSA application I downloaded from the Microsoft store can work normally, for example, open the Amazon application.

However, when I open the developer option, all Android applications cannot be opened, including the "Manage developer settings" page. The "Starting" page will automatically close after a period of time.

Can you help me? Thank you in advance.

PS: I wanted to insert a picture in the question, but it always prompts "Unauthorized request", which makes me have to describe my situation in words. I'm very sorry.

Hello there,

The Windows Subsystem for Android (powered by Amazon Appstore) seems to conflict with a lot of second-tier 3rd party Antivirus suites. You can try to temporarily disable them and see if that helps.

If you have updated your Windows 11 computer up to date but you have postponed the updates available for the Microsoft Store, that’s probably the reason why you’re experiencing issues with the Windows Subsystem for Android.

The below thread discusses the same issue and you can try out some troubleshooting steps from this and see if that helps you to sort the Issue.
