The most popular package was and remains BlueStacks. With it you can create a virtual mobile device on your PC, run applications and games on it, use the store Google Play and others Google services. Let's look at the basics of how to use BlueStacks on your computer.
First of all, it is worth considering the installation procedure of this emulator Android. Then we will talk about the need for an account and the nuances of using Bluestax. Let's start in order.
Downloading and installing BlueStacks
Before downloading Bluestacks, check if your computer is compatible system requirements. Their complete list can be found on the developer’s website. But let's put it briefly: if your computer was manufactured in the last 10 years, it has discrete video card(or a good built-in kernel), at least 4 GB of RAM, and Windows version 2014 or later XP with the third service pack, then BlueStacks should start for you.
We recommend downloading BlueStacks from the developer’s official website –. Yes, some third-party portals offer to download a version with the root already obtained and Superuser installed. However, we cannot guarantee that such modified distributions are completely safe. You can also get root yourself.
If you have already installed the program and now want to update Bluestacks to latest version you can do it from the inside installed program. To do this, click LMB on the arrow located in the upper right corner of the screen and select "Settings".And then go to the section "Update". Information about the current version of the program will be displayed there.
What needs to be updated before installing BlueStacks?
Installing an emulator is no different from installing any other program under Windows (or, accordingly, OS X, if you have a Mac). Run the installer and follow the instructions of the installation wizard. 
Registration and account differences
The question of how to register for BlueStacks has for some time now had two answers. On the one hand, this may mean registering a Google account. Everything here is exactly the same as in regular Android:
On the other hand, the words “Registration with BlueStacks” can also mean access to the emulator’s own services. In this case you will also need to create Google account in the manner described above. But access to the BlueStacks store is in the top bar, on the coins icon. In it you can get Pika Points coins (to buy themes, subscriptions or accessories with them), purchase a premium account or get privileged Superfan status. Whether you need it - decide for yourself. 
If your question about BlueStacks is how to log out of your account, then this is done in the same way as in Android.
Yours Account will be saved on the Google server, and there will be no problems with accessing it through other devices or programs.
Installing applications
You can install applications both from Google Play and your own BlueStacks store, and from third-party sources, through regular APK files. The developers took care of how to install APK file on BlueStacks without unnecessary movements.
If you need to install a game or application with a cache, then before installing the cache in BlueStacks, download it and unzip it into a folder "My Documents". Then do the following:
The correct procedure looks like this:
Working with files in BlueStacks
One of the main advantages of installing an emulator on a computer is easy and fast file exchange. You no longer need to configure wireless connection, remove the memory card or connect the tablet or smartphone with a cable to the computer. However, file sharing has its own nuances.
Before you transfer files from BlueStacks to your computer, you need to understand one thing: file system emulator - virtual. That is, you will not be able to find the hidden BlueStacks folder where files downloaded via Android are saved and copy them using Windows Explorer. This is done from inside Android, which just has access to the computer system.
Working with BlueStacks on-screen display
When you hold a real Android device in your hand, you are free to rotate it however you like, and the accelerometer will translate the image to the correct position. The computer monitor on which you display the BlueStacks image cannot be rotated so easily.
In the current version of BlueStacks, as a rule, when you launch a game or application focused on portrait mode, the virtual display changes orientation itself. When you exit the application, the interface automatically changes to landscape.
Developers no longer offer the option of manually rotating the screen in BlueStacks. If it is critical for you, install an earlier version of BlueStacks (for example, 2.6) and disable automatic updates.
