Answer 3

I had the same problem, vt-x was on, hyper-v off and no antivirus as i only rely on inbuilt defender. The solution for me was to uninstall the default haxm from android studio and replaced it with the one from intel website given above by codecats.

Answer 4

There's also the NX, XD bit setting.
bcdedit /set nx AlwaysOn
Make sure you use the Haxm from the web site instead of using the one downloaded through Android Studio). https://software.intel.com/en-us/android/articles/intel-hardware-accelerated-execution-manager
If you're using Avast, disable "Enable hardware-assisted virtualization" under: Settings > Troubleshooting.

Answer 5

I had this issue and it failed to install due to emulators being open (I have bluestacks loading on boot) which caused the install to report the error wrong. Make sure you have all emulators closed - fixed my problem
