Download Google Play Store APK: Open a web browser within the emulator and search for “Google Play Store APK.” Visit a trusted website that offers APK files for download and choose a reliable source to download from.
Install APK file: Once downloaded, locate the downloaded APK file either in the Downloads folder or wherever you saved it. Double-click on it or drag-and-drop it into the emulator window to start the installation process.
Enable app installation from unknown sources (optional): Depending on your emulator settings, you may need to enable app installation from unknown sources before proceeding with the installation. This option can usually be found in the emulator’s settings menu.
Configuring Google Play Store
After successfully installing Google Play Store on your PC, there are a few more steps to ensure it functions properly.
Sign in with your Google account: Launch Google Play Store within the emulator and sign in using your existing Google account credentials. This will allow you to access your purchased apps and sync app data across devices.
