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.

You may be running out of memory. After all, bluestacks is an emulator and WILL hoard memory like it’s gluttonous tribe does. Your Mac maybe overheating but I don’t think that would crash the app. If you have Bluestacks open, close it by clicking on the X button at the top-right and right-click on the Bluestacks icon on your system tray and select Quit. If that doesn’t work for some reason, open Task Manager (Ctrl + Shift + Esc), locate all the Bluestacks processes & services and end them (right-click End Task). Close BlueStacks and leave it alone for at least 10 minutes (users on slower internet connections might need more time). (A fix will be applied in the background) 7. Re-launch BlueStacks. Login to BlueStacks. If you’re not sure how to do this, we created this video for you.

The first three times it happened I was like “ok, no problem…”, but from the 20th time and on, it became really annoying. So I did some research and put together the solutions for you guys. This is what happens: Can

The Bluestacks service freezed; we need to terminate it. In order to do that you need the service PID. Go to the Start menu/Accessories and click it.

Open the Task Manager.
Go to the “Services” tab.
Search for BstHdAndroidSvc or BlueStacks Android Service.
Look for the PID column (if you can’t find it, inside the Task Manager go to “View/Select Columns”, select PID and apply).
Now, keep the Task Manager open or remember that number.
Go to the Start menu/Accessories and right click “Command Prompt“, then click “Run as administrator“
A black background window opens.
taskkill /f /pid ####(where “####” is the PID of the BlueStacks service)
A message will appear telling you the service was succesfully terminated.
We’re done.
Go and re-start BlueStacks.
