WSA PacMan

wsa_pacman is a graphical package manager designed for Microsoft’s Windows Subsystem for Android (WSA). Its goal is to simplify the process of installing APKs onto WSA by offering a user-friendly interface rather than requiring command-line ADB commands. It detects running WSA instances, provides drag-and-drop APK installation, and shows app details before confirming installation. The tool helps users manage multiple APKs, check package signatures, and handle updates with minimal manual steps. Being lightweight, it integrates seamlessly into Windows, making Android app management on WSA accessible to non-technical users. The project demonstrates how to bridge desktop and Android environments through a clean and intuitive GUI.

Features

Double-click installer for .apk and .xapk files showing package details, icon, version, and permissions
Supports installation, upgrade, and downgrade of Android apps within WSA
Provides quick access buttons to open Android Settings and Manage Applications in WSA
Configurable settings including autostart WSA on/off, custom Android port, app language, theme mode (system/dark/light), window transparency, and adaptive icon shape
Licensed under GPL‑3.0 for open-source usage
Simplifies sideloading, avoiding dependency on ADB commands via a polished GUI
