Bluestacks = BSOD

Hi there Santi welcome to the community forum! Christopher here, an Xbox fan just like you and has been on Xbox for years already. I would really love to make your day by helping you out. Unfortunately, running emulators will always come with certain risks (including bluestack), I do not suggest installing them, but, if you do you could use a good antivirus like Norton, ESET, etc.

Norton is a virus lol. it runs like rubbish and is definitely not a good option same as MacAfee

There are some known applications that have been reported to cause the “CRITICAL_STRUCTURE_CORRUPTION” error on Windows 10. Uninstalling these applications may fix the error from happening again.

At the moment, some of the known applications that cause this error are Daemon Tools, BlueStacks, Alcohol 120%, VirtualBox, Intel Hardware Accelerated Execution Manager, and MacDriver. These are only a few, so we recommend using the Windows Event Viewer to identify any other possible app.

If you have any of these applications installed on your device, follow the simple guide below to remove them. Doing so can potentially eliminate the possibility of this blue screen error from happening again.

1. Click on the Start menu in your taskbar, then choose “Settings.” Alternatively, you can press the Windows + I keys on your keyboard to open the app.
   
2. Click on the “Apps” tile.
   
3. Use the search function to look for the problematic application you have installed.
   
4. Click on the app and choose the “Uninstall” option.
   
5. Follow the on-screen instructions to properly remove the application.
   
6. When the uninstallation is complete, restart your computer.

The System File Checker is a tool available in Windows 10 by default. It’s also called an “SFC scan,” and it’s your quickest way to automatically fix corrupted system files and other issues.

1. Press the Windows + R keys on your keyboard. This is going to bring up the Run utility.
   
2. Type in “cmd” and press the Ctrl + Shift + Enter keys on your keyboard. Doing so, you’re launching the Command Prompt with administrative permissions.
   
3. If prompted, click Yes to allow the Command Prompt to make changes on your device.
   
4. Once in the Command Prompt, type in the following command and press Enter to execute it: sfc /scannow
   
5. Wait for the SFC scan to finish scanning your computer and repairing corrupt files. This may take a long time; ensure that you don’t close the Command Prompt or shut your computer down.
   
6. Restart your device after the scan is complete.
   

Hi,

Not 'officially' no. However you can run them on the Android Emulator BlueStacks on Windows 10.

I've tried it and works.

Hi,

I take it with your referrals to Nox Player and BlueStacks, you are trying to use Xbox cloud streaming on your PC/Laptop, correct?

To anyone else reading this, Nox Player and BlueStacks are Android emulators. Android emulation is the only way to play Xbox Cloud games on a PC at the moment until Microsoft launches an official PC client.

I have no personal experience with Nox Player, but I have used Bluestacks and I have successfully connected to the the Xbox Cloud gaming service with BlueStacks.

Can you tell us what the make and model of your PC is please?
