A few months ago I started using BlueStacks, an Android app player for PC (and MAC). It’s like having your smartphone/tablet inside your computer. You can play games, install apps, send whatsapp, viber, boxer… messages. It’s kind of cool. Nevertheless I have found myself with the startup screen freezing a few times, and nothing seemed to fix the problem (yes I know, there the “Restart Bluestacks” option in the system tray but that didn’t work either). The only fix seemed to be restarting the computer.
