Now you can use Android Apps and Games on your Windows/Mac machine and have fun with them using Android Emulators.
What is an Android Emulator:
It is a piece of software and upon its installation on your PC you can sync your Android Apps and Games on your windows or Mac operating system within the Emulator.
There are quite few android apps available on Internet but the most widely used Android Emulator is Bluestacks.
Steps to Download and Install Bluestacks:
- Go to Bluestacks Official site and choose your operating system either Windows or Mac and download the software.
- After downloading the software just install it which is pretty much straight forward.
- After installing the software you can download android apps and games then use it on your pc on Bluestacks.
If you are getting some error like "The application failed to initialized properly (0xc0000135) . Click on ok tp terminate the application",then .NET framework is missing on your PC.Click Here to Install latest Version of .NET Framework.

Some Alternative to Bluestacks:
The best Android Emulator that I have overcame so far is Bluestacks.The only disadvantage of this software is that its a little heavy and make your pc slow while you are using this software.Also, a slow internet connection might trouble you while using this software.
- You can try Android Installer which is a Official Android Emulating software.
- You can also try Youwave
If you find any better Android Emulator than Bluestacks let me know in your comments.
