Android Emulator Hypervisor Driver for AMD Processor Installation failed - android-studio

I am attempting to install the Android Emulator for android studio and every time i attempt it it asks to install another add on in order to install it. Immediately after it fails. I have enable virtualisation in the BIOS, i have disabled hyper-V, hypervisor platform, virtual machine and device guard. The error message is:
[SC] StartService FAILED with error 4294967201.
Android Emulator Hypervisor Driver for AMD Processors installation failed. To install Android Emulator Hypervisor Driver for AMD Processors follow the instructions found at: https://github.com/google/android-emulator-hypervisor-driver-for-amd-processors
if anyone has any suggestions it will be much appreciated as i have spent a lot of time trying to fix it.
thanks,

Had the same problem until just now, found the answers here: https://github.com/google/android-emulator-hypervisor-driver-for-amd-processors/issues/17.
Some anti-virus programs have a feature that blocks some virtualization functionality to protect against malware that uses said functionality. All you need to do is disable the feature and restart your PC.
For me, it was Avast that created the Problem.
I hope I could help you, although this thread is a month old.

Trouble installing HAXM in Android Studio (Windows 10)

Brand new to app development and am having a bit of trouble activating an Android Virtual Device (AVD) for Android Studio (Windows 10). I am trying to install HAXM but receive the attached message.
Upon going into my /installed programs/ directory to uninstall Microsoft Hyper-V, the program is not listed. Would the Hyper-V program be listed under another name, or rather, could anyone please provide feedback as to resolving this message? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
For AMD system, you can use Windows Hypervisor Platform (WHPX) under Windows 10 since Version 1803:
To enable Windows Hypervisor Platform (WHPX) do the following steps:
From the Windows desktop, right-click the Windows icon and select Apps and features.
Under Related settings, click Programs and Features.
Click Turns Windows Features on or off.
Select Windows Hypervisor Platform
click ok and reboot.
Now create a new Android Virtual Device (AVD).
Yes the same was here too,
Ok there are 2 ways of solving this ,
First you can go to BIOS and disable the Hyper V and enable the VT x for intel. If you had not the VTx or with disabling Hyper v nothing has solved then come to Second solution.
The second is there is not a solution available for you and your computer just like me. Your cpu and computer cant install HAXM which mean you cant install and run emulator , but hang on, google has added new property to emulators to run without HAXM and you need to install those package of SDK api which has Amd virtualization or non HAXM, also even this one has not helped me, so if you were like me then you can use physical device for testing or installing linux instead of windows and use Hyper v to run emulator in android studio instead of HAXM, and i prefer Lubuntu cause of speed it will gives you if you wantes to install.

Is it possible to disable HAMX feature for an AVD based on Intel x86 CPU?

I created some AVDs in Android Studio V3.5. All these AVDs are based on Intel x86 CPU.
But I failed to start any of them because any HAXM devices couldn't be found.
I have enabled VT-x in BIOS settings. When I tried to install 'Intel Hardware Accelerated Execution Manager V7.0.5', it reported "failed to configure driver unknown error. failed to open driver.".
So, is it possible to disable HAMX feature for an AVD based on Intel x86 CPU?
Thank you in advance.
In the myAVD.ini, there is not any options for HAXM. So, maybe it's no way to disable the HAMX feature required for an AVD based on Intel x86 CPU.
But the good news is, I finally worked out the "failed to configure driver unknown error. failed to open driver." issue now after my continuous google and studying. My HAXM driver works well now.

Emulator error : x86 emulation currently requires hardware acceleration

This error happened under Android studio 3.4. I'm using Windows 10. I didn't find any way to fix it on the other threads asking the same question.
Especially, I've installed Intel HAXM manually, my BIOS settings are allowing virtualization, it can't be a problem involving my anti-virus as I tried to run my project while it was disabled, I've also rebuild my project each time.
What am I missing? Thanks already to all those who will answer me.
Solved. I had to go change the advanced settings of the emulated software, changing the "graphics" value by "software ..." instead of "hardware ...".

This computer does not support Intel Virtualization Technology (VT-x) or it is being exclusively used by Hyper-V error

I'm using Android Studio on windows 10 currently. However, as I try to install HAXM via android studio, there is an error which always pops up "This computer does not support Intel Virtualization Technology (VT-x) or it is being exclusively used by Hyper-V. HAXM cannot be installed".
The weird thing is that when I checked my installed programs, HAXM is already installed by default. I have no idea why I am not able to upgrade. I'm using a decent gaming laptop with an 8th Gen Intel Core i7 processor.
Things I have tried :
I have already went into my bios and made sure all virtualization options were enabled and went to "Windows Features"and unchecked Windows Hyper-visor Platform but to no avail as the problem still persists
I recently had the same issue, and even though Intel virtualization was enabled in the BIOS and my Windows 10 doesn't have the Hyper-V option because it's the home edition, I wasn't able to use Android Studio emulators/virtual machines or upgrade/reinstall Intel HAXM. I then found out that an enabled feature on Windows Defender was the cause of the problem. Try the following steps (sorry, my device is in portuguese so the options might have another naming other than the direct translation to english):
In Windows Defender, go to Device Security (The one with a laptop icon).
Choose Kernel Isolation Details (first option).
And disable the Memory Integrity option if it isn't disabled already (in case it is, I'm sorry but this solution won't help you out).
If you have to change the option to disabled, restart your computer and try upgrading HAXM via Android Studio again.
I hope this helps. :)
In my case, after disabling Hyper-V in Windows Features I had to turn the antivirus (Kaspersky) off to install Intel x86 Emulator Accelerator (HAXM) 7.5.6 on Windows 10 Pro (1909).
IF u have AMD CPU you have to install Driver for AMD processor Check img

How to solve this emulator: ERROR: x86 emulation currently requires hardware acceleration

After installing android-studio-bundle-141.2456560-windows.exe in Windows 7 32 bit ultimate (6.1 build 7600)
I'm getting HAXM error while run emulator, I have exercised all the possible ways like,
Installing INTEL HAXM hardware accelerator through SDK manager I have uploaded a screenshot of this.
I have unchecked HYPER V option in turn on and off features
When I try to install HAXM from android SDK extras shown in screen shot
Note that I don't have Virtualization option in my BIOS setup if we consider that some advanced SoC will internally takes care about this virtualization
!!!But still android emulator is throwing the error
According to Intel's website, the Core 2 Duo E7200 does not support VT-x
Intel ARK
Unfortunately you cannot run HAXM without vt-x. This means either you'll have to try a different emulation method or use a real android device. Using a real android device will always give you the best results, so I recommend going that route.
if you have not installed intel x86 Emulator Accelerator (HAXM installer) then you need to install it from tools -> SDK Manager there you will find this HAXM installer
if it has been already installed then also the same issue is arising then go to the folder where SDK is stored for me it is
D:\sdk\extras\intel\Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager
and then run silent_install with administrator permission
and you are ready to go..!!!
First, uninstall your "intelhaxm-android.exe".
go to the BIOS and enable "Intel(R) Virtuallzation Technology".
again install "intelhaxm-android.exe".
create a new Virtual device and run.
