A simplified way to install apks, and interact with the new Windows Subsystem for Android adb install xyz NO LONGER! Running this software installs it. You can choose whether to make it the default action for .apks too! Either double-click an apk (with it set to the default action - in the install), or Right-Click an apk and select Install in WSA-SimpleSideload.

Other commands:

• SimpleSideload.exe unlink - Uninstall this program. Either with the EXE in %AppData%\platform-tools\, or a downladed copy.
• SimpleSideload.exe reinstall - Gives another opportunity to add file associations & the Context Menu option.
• SimpleSideload.exe settings - Opens WSA's settings window
• SimpleSideload.exe push <File> - Move a file to the WSA's Downloads folder. Add <Optional:Destination on Android> to push to another folder. Downloads (default) is: - ./storage/emulated/0/Download
• SimpleSideload.exe <apkname/fullpath> - Install an APK manually from the command line

To update:

Run SimpleSideload.exe reinstall in the directory you downloaded the updated program to.

It runs adb commands for you

On install, if there isn't a platform-tools folder in the same directory, it automagically downloads the latest version, and extracts to %AppData%\platform-tools. It also copies itself there. The context menu interaction and arguments are all redirected into there, to work with ADB.

Note

Make sure to have adb & this program closed to install, or reinstall. Having adb open could cause it to crash. Check your Task Manager.
