Android Studio, emulator, HAXM, VT-x not working

Question

I am trying to use the Android Studio emulator on Windows 10. I can\'t install the HAXM in the SDK folder because VT-x is not enabled. I tried disabling the Secure Boot Co

Answer 1

Even after enabling the VT in BIOS, Android studio wouldn't detect it. The solution that worked for me was to do a cold reboot (power off the PC completely, i.e. when you restart it after you change BIOS setting for VT, shut it down again, unplug it from the mains to power off the motherboard and power on again after 10 secs. For laptops, I guess you'd need to take off the battery and plug it back). I have Asus MB.

Answer 2

I have enabled virtualisation technology (Hyper-V does not exist in my windows 7) but without any success. what worked for me is installing v7.4.1 instead of the latest version v7.5.2 (at the time I am writing this answer)

Answer 3

Just follows these steps:

1. Go to Control Panel → Program and Feature.

2. Click on Turn Window Features on and off. A window opens.

3. Uncheck Hyper-V option and restart your system.

Now, you can Start HAXM installation without any error.

Hyper-V is only found in Windows8.

So follow these steps

First of all make sure you enabled Virtualization Technology in your BIOS. After restarting your computer press F1-F12 on your keyboard and find this option.

Make sure you disabled Hyper-V in your Windows 7/Windows 8. You can turn it off in Control Panel -> Programs -> Windows functions
