I will try to install an app and it works and gets the job done. Many other times I try for a simple install of an app and this wonderful app will have a mind of its own! Herrs my PC specs. They aren't  amazing for anything really bug the cost of a class at college can become and IS amazing!

Emulators are always tricky. Windows isn't Android and vice versa so some hit-and-miss is to expected. A Microsoft help forum thread from 2022 clearly stated that.

This recent article tackles some of the issues as well as forecoming changes in Windows11 that can make using Play Store apps even more challenging: https://www.androidauthority.com/how-to-install-google-play-store-on-windows-11-3049609/ (https://www.androidauthority.com/how-to-install-google-play-store-on-windows-11-3049609/)

In that respect I though I've read that Windows 10 and 11 will work with some applications.

Through the Windows for android substem part of windows.

I use phone link and it works with the very few apps I use. There are other emulators but I'm skeptical of their legitimacy.

Yes that's what I read about that doesn't work for all apps.
