How to Stop Bluestacks from Downloading Apps in Background Automatically [One-Time Process]

We have heard about many Android Emulators on Internet to run android apps like Whatsapp on PC but Bluestacks is the most popular of them i.e. It is the first choice of everyone because it is free of cost unlike other which are paid Emulators like Youwave.

Bluestacks is a free emulator but it has a great problem to deal i.e. to keep the app running you have to either pay $20 or let the app download some premium apps which will cost you some net pack.
There is one major disadvantage of bluestacks that it will download apps Around 50-100MB everyday or even more in a single day from Gamepop because of the deal of Bluestacks with Gamepop.

Here is the best solution to Stop automatic download of apps in Bluestacks:

Follow all the steps to stop automatic download of apps in bluestacks:

1. Download Any Launcher and Install it

Download and Install any launcher from the web I will suggest you to have Nova Launcher.
Benefit of Nova Launcher is that it will give bluestacks a very good look like a Tablet.

2.Uninstall Unnecessary apps and Disable All Unnecessary Services

Uninstall any unnecessary apps from the bluestacks some example are Google Play Services, Gamepop home,Getjar etc. and Disable all the unnecessary Services including the one shown in below picture.’

3.Stop Gamepop home app services and related services.

Follow steps to Force stop the apps: 
1) Go to Settings.
2) Select the “Apps” tab.
3) In the “Running” tab , select the apps, and force stop their activities.

4. Finalizing the settings and running Launcher

Now run the Launcher you downloaded and make it default for home. You are done now but remember that you should not open the Gamepop home launcher again because this launcher is all responsible for automatic download.
After completing all these Four steps I have solved this problem of bluestacks in my PC. Hope so it will also work for you If not then you can also search for Rooted Version of Bluestacks on Google and download it and you are done.
And Much better is that you should download Rooted Superuser Version Of Bluestacks

    i tried this method and it corrupts the bluestacks shared folder settings and you can't transfer files between bluestacks and windows anymore regardless if it's rooted or not. the better way would be setting a parental control on play store on 3+ apps and removing it whenever you want to install new apps then set it again. it works like a charm

  18. Satyendra Maurya

    @yardoo kimooni I don't know what happened in your case but here I tried this in 3 PCs and It is working fine. Currently I am using bluestacks rooted superuser version with no such problems.

  19. Unknown

    need your advice sir.which of two will i download, the LATEST VERSION or the Pre-Rooted Version (SuperUser+BSeasy).. by the way, which one is better? tired of using the unrooted version of BS because of unwanted app & game downloads. hope one of this versions will work on my pc.

  20. Satyendra Maurya

    Much better you go with pre-rooted version or you can also try the latest one(because I haven't used yet) and share your opinion.

    All other steps were very helpful except 2. "Uninstall any unnecessary apps" like "Google Play Services". That's a mistake.

    Several services depend on this so uninstalling that will mess up other core features like Location and Clock. Warning: DO NOT UNINSTALL Google Play Services

  26. Satyendra Maurya

    Thanks for the response. Will Update Soon!!!

    Hi
    I downloaded root version but there is no uninstall button for gamepop

  28. Unknown

    "Uninstall any unnecessary apps from the bluestacks some example are Google Play Services"

    no no no that is a bad mistake, now I can't login to google and I cant install apps.

  29. Satyendra Maurya

    In rooted version there is no need of uninstalling the gamepop.

    Torrent files bring in the exact files essential for the user. It never allows the corrupted and undesirable files to get downloaded to make sure great quality for the downloaded files. VPN for omegle.com

  36. Matias

    This type of program can spread through a number of ways, most of the time through web browsing when we visit malicious websites, downloading infected from Torrent and peer to peer networks etc. OceanOfGames
