The Windows Subsystem for Android is getting a fresh update through all of the Windows Insider Channels, according to Microsoft. The most recent update, which came out in September, changed the version number to 2208.40000.4.0. This was done to make the software more useful overall.
This version includes 14 different modifications, many of which are minor. The changes Microsoft made to the gaming experience last month didn't have the same significant impact this month. Nevertheless, according to Microsoft, the update will enhance performance, general reliability, input difficulties, security, and general dependability. There are a couple of places where you'll see this. The performance of startup operations and the uninstallation of programs should all be improved. App scrolling will also be more fluid.
Additionally, Microsoft released updates for gamepads that use several apps and fixed issues related to copying and pasting huge amounts of material. The list below contains all the information in full:
