BlueStacks 5.20 Root Instructions

[VisionR1]

I just trim the instructions and test it

I don't know if this method is good because chance from ReadOnly to Normal but because BSTweaker 6.9.2 beta not work with Latest 5.20, a quick method and old methot from 2021 from xda here: https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-magisk-supersu-and-xposed-for-memu-7-3-2-or-ldplayer-4-0-45.4222919/post-85009977 (i test it and still work)

1) Need to make /system partition writable first. For that, you need to go to this directory "%ProgramData%\BlueStacks_nxt\Engine\Rvc64" This changing for the master instance Rvc64. Edit the file Rvc64.bstk and change type="ReadOnly" to type="Normal" for Root.vdi

2) Need Su Access. For this go to "%ProgramData%\BlueStacks_nxt" and edit the file bluestacks.conf present within. Search for root and look for an entry similar to - bst.instance.Rvc64.enable_root_access="0" That entry is for the master instance of Rvc64. Change it's value to 1 and save this file

Note: Make sure you made these changes while there were no instances running and no services related to bluestacks were running, if there are please close or kill them via task manager

If all good start the emulator and try install latest Kitsune to see if it work

   Can confirm it works, but files may be different for everyone make to sure edit the 3 below to Normal 
   with quotes.

   <HardDisk uuid="{redacted}" location="fastboot.vdi" format="VDI" type="Normal"/>
    <HardDisk uuid="{redacted}" location="Root.vhd" format="VHD" type="Normal"/>
    <HardDisk uuid="{redacted}" location="Data.vhdx" format="VHDX" type="Normal"/>

    <HardDisk uuid="{redacted}" location="Data.vhdx" format="VHDX" type="Normal"/>

Besides that, the Data.vhdx is normal by default, and the fastboot.vdi why normal ? I ask because even with BlueStacksTweaker still remain Readonly

that doesn't really harm it to keep it at normal also easier to make one click root solution like bstweaker that should work for all android 11 bs 5 versions unless they change the file format drastically

I'm using this root method on BlueStacks 5.21.0 but BS5 always crash,not responding after a while. Does anyone have that problem?

Likely because u manually edited it wrong, thus use the script to prevent mistakes. Likely have to undo all ur edits or reinstall the program
