- Start BlueStacks from the Main tab if it is not already started.
- Wait for BlueStacks to start completely.
- Go to Helpers tab in BS Tweaker, you will see Root for BlueStacks option.
- Click on Patch and you BlueStacks is rooted, now you need to install SuperSu 2.79
- If you do not see Patch option there may be Unlock option. So Full Stop BS from Main, and Unlock then again start the BlueStacks and Patch for root.
- Now got to BlueStacks and click on Install apk (right bottom in BS 3) to manually install SuperSU. Install Supersuer.apk you extracted. (we are installing SuperSU 2.79 because latest SuperSU from play store is not working)
- After installing open SuperSU, select Expert user when asked. It will ask to update the SuperSU binary select continue and select the Normal mode. After updating binary so click on ok (reboot will not work since it is not an android mobile).
- Now your BlueStacks is completely rooted. You can check root status with root checker app available at play store. If you want to update SuperSU now you can do so.

Quick Tip
If you need apps/games run faster in emulator but the performance is not good in your low spec PC, then you can try Android OS instead of emulator. Android OS(s) are OS for PC that can be installed in PC(s) and use them like emulators. The different is that in the emulator you can only have some resources left for android while installing Android in PC(s) gives Android full resources. That’s why emulator is slow. There are many Android OS. Some well known are Phoenix OS, Remix OS and Android-x86. You can try any of them in your PC.
