Android Question

Hi, I need help, I just bought a tablet and I'm trying to instal Google play store but when I try to open it it force closes. None of Google stuffs has been installed in the tablet. The store it has the tablet is the same as the store I bought it. It's called plaisio, most of yo don't know it... So, new tablet, nothing from Google, force closing play store.
 
Side-loading Play will cause a crash. The gapps.zip for your device must be flashed via a custom recovery, which means you need to be rooted. Custom recoveries sadly don't exist for cheaper devices which don't include Play. Trying to install the apk for Play Store will always result in a 'sorry! The application com.Google.android.vending has force-closed unexpectedly ' or in newer versions of Android, 'unfortunately, Google Play Store has stopped'
 
Sometimes on devices like that you can install the old Android Market app, which accesses the same store as Play. Otherwise you will have to settle for other appstores, like the Amazon appstore. You'll want to try to limit yourself to reputable ones; the shady ones can contain malware.
