Monitor WSA status and turn WSA on/off from the system tray

WSA System Control is a system tray application designed to monitor and manage the Windows Subsystem for Android (WSA) status directly from your desktop. This tool provides a seamless way to start, stop, or restart the WSA subsystem without navigating through multiple menus.

Key Features:

  • Monitor real-time WSA status with a dynamic system tray icon that reflects its current state.
  • Launch WSA Settings, Android Settings, and Files apps directly from the context menu for quick access.
  • Supports multi-language display based on your Windows settings, ensuring a familiar interface in your preferred language.

Audience & Benefit:
Ideal for developers, enthusiasts, and users who rely on WSA for running Android applications on Windows. WSA System Control streamlines WSA management by consolidating essential functions into a single, intuitive tool accessible from the system tray. It is particularly useful for those looking to optimize their workflow with minimal interruption.

WSA System Control can be installed via winget and operates smoothly alongside other tools in your development environment.

Translations

Locale files are located in WSA System Control/Resources. The language that is used by WSA System Control is dependent on your Windows display language. If your language isn't yet supported by WSA System Control, it will fallback to English.

If you want to translate WSA System Control to a language which is not yet supported, use the WSA System Control/Resources/Strings.resx file as a base for the translation. Make sure that the file is named in the Strings.langCode.resx format e.g. Strings.ja-JP.resx.

Future updates to strings will involve updating all translated language files using Google Translate or some other machine translation service. As you may know, these services are not always accurate, so if you see any inaccuracies, please make a pull request!

During translation, it is a good idea to run WSA System Control with the translated language to see the end result. As long as the translated file is properly named and placed in the WSA System Control/Resources folder, it should automatically display in that language.

Text enclosed in {} brackets are variables which should be left the way they are and not be translated.

Microsoft Store page

Along with the program itself, I also aim to provide localized MS Store pages in the languages which the program is available. In your PR, include a comment with translated versions of the strings provided on this page.
