Genymotion problems in windows 10

Question

I have a problem about Genymotion after updating my OS to Windows 10, fistly it did not open with this error: Virtualization engine not found. Plugin loading aborted. Also u

Answer 1

Start Genymotion 2.5.3 in compatibility mode with Windows 8 - it solves the problem for me. VirtualBox 5.0.0 r101573 and Windows 10 Home (all for x64).

Answer 2

In my case (Windows 10 with VirtualBox 5.0.10 and Genymotion 2.6.0) i had to:

• Go to network connections (run control netconnections from cmd)

• Right click and properties on VirtualBox Host-Only Network

• Enable VirtualBox NDIS6 Bridged Networking Driver

Also some times it helps to delete the virtual device and to download it again.

Answer 3

Refer to this virtualbox thread: https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/14040

For me, as other answers suggested, using genymotion 2.5.3 and latest vbox works fine.

You can find latest test builds at https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Testbuilds

Hope it helps :)

EDIT Vbox now officially supports windows 10 and genymotion 2.5.4 also supports Vbox version (5.0.4) on Windows 10 see https://www.genymotion.com/#!/release-notes

Answer 4

Go to VirtualBox. File -> Preferences -> Network -> Select Host-only Networks.

Select one of the Ethernet Adapters -> Click the tool on bottom right of screen. The third button on the right.

Enter the following:
IPv4 Address: 192.168.1.201 IPv4
Network Mask: 255.255.255.0.

No need to have DHCP Server selected. Hit OK and now you are good to go.

If you haven't done so, make sure to go to Settings and set Version to Windows 10. Also, update Genymotion to the most current version.

Answer 5

UPDATE: This is fixed in the latest Genymotion and doesn't happen to me any more.

---

NOTE: this is using Genymotion 2.5.3, VirtualBox 5.0.0 r101573 and updated Windows 10 as of today.

I'm having all kinds of problems as well, I finally managed to get it working:

• Delete genymotion and virtualbox
• Remove any unremoved files in folders like AppData and Program Files
• Restart
• Install Genymotion
• Install VirtualBox latest
• Run Genymotion as admin, just in case
• Install an image that I didn't try before to make sure it's not using any cached data.

It worked fine.

Sometimes, I still freezes and stops working if I try to start a second device. The solution is to:

• Close Genymotion, Android studio, etc
• Force kill adb.exe and any VirtualBox processes.
• Start Genymotion again and start a device.

Answer 6

Install the latest version of Genymotion(2.5.3) can solve the problem.

I've send a email to Genymotion to ask this problem, and I got this reply：
