Unable to install Android Emulator Hypervisor Driver for AMD Processor - android-studio

I am unable to install Android Emulator Hypervisor Driver for AMD Processor.
It is to be noted that virtualization is enabled.
Emulator Process for AVD was killed shown while running the code in Visual Studio while trying to install the Hypervisor Driver in Android Studio.
Error is also shown in Android Studio while installing the Hypervisor Driver:
What to do now? Thanks.

If you are using AVAST antivirus, It will not work .. So open Avast antivirus UI and go to Menu / Setting / troubleshooting and clear the tick on (( Enable hardware-assisted virtualization )) and restart. It will be installed.

First you should try to see if you have Hyper-V enabled. In most cases, the newer computers use it for hardware acceleration but it doesn't share with other virtualization apps, so to run this on an AMD or Intel VT-x first check if you have Hyper-V installed (go to your control panel, then in Programs and Features window, click “Turn Windows features on or off.” then look for Hyper-V and clear the checkbox then click OK.
If that doesn't work check your BIOS permissions, you can go to advanced CPU configuration or chipset and
find the "Intel Virtualization Technology", enable this option,
or
on AMD enable the SVM
then Save and Exit.

This method by Tamer works for me but you have to restart your computer for it to be effective.

I had the same challenge when trying to add Bluestacks as an emulator in Android Studio and this was my solution.
Open PowerShell as Admin and do this command:
Disable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V
A restart should follow and all should be fine.

I'm not sure why you tried installing an AMD Virtualization driver for your Intel-CPU. As other people already suggested, try to install the Intel-Driver instead.
The installation probably failed because the program detected your not using an amd-cpu, so there's no point in installing it.

Cannot install Android Emulator Hypervisor Driver for AMD Processors (installer)

Disabled HyperV via GUI as above.
Disable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V
Then made sure via powershell via above.
Yet when running emulator-check.exe hyper-v:
hyper-v:
2
Hyper-V is enabled
hyper-v
I assume this is the issue. Virtualization is enabled. I have tried manually installing batch file (not in android studio). I have tried disabling Virtual Machine Platform and Windows Hypervisor Platform to install and that also didn't work (re-enabled after). CPU is AMD Ryzen 5 5625U with Radeon Graphics. Android Studio and the command were done with admin.
1st enable virtualization and hyper-v from your motherboard BIOS settings.
Then from the GUI enable the following:
Hyper-V
Virtual Machine Platform
Windows Hypervisor Platform
And after that restart your windows machine.
What fixed this, was turning Virtualization OFF in the BIOS and then ON again. After doing this mulator-check.exe hyper-v showed hyper-v to be not installed, which is the expected output. I was then able to install the driver in Android Studio as usual.

Android emulator /dev/kvm not found?

I am using fedora distro.
I went to create android emulator in android studio, but i got that /dev/kvm not found!
I tried to install kvm but still same.
Any one can help me ?
You need to enable KVM, from the BIOS by pressing F1 key before the system boot. Next, go to the Security tab and enable Intel Virtualization Technology and Intel VT-d Feature. Save the new settings by pressing F10. Finally, exit and restart your computer.

How to configure KVM for Android Studio on Ubuntu?

No matter how I configure my system, Android Studio shows the "We have detected that your system can run the android emulator in an accelerated performance mode. Linuxed-based systems support virtual machine acceleration through the KVM. Search for install instructions for your particular Linux configuration hat KVM is enabled for faster Android emulator performance."
egrep -c '(vmx|svm)' /proc/cpuinfo gives 8
kvm-ok gives INFO: /dev/kvm exists
KVM acceleration can be used
grep kvm /etc/group gives kvm:x:108:currentLoggedInUser
How should I configure KVM correct on Ubuntu 19.10? And how could I tell if Android Studio is running the VM using KVM?
Thanks.
i had same issue, but the other way around. To make it work, first make sure you've enabled virtualization in the BIOS and added your username in libvirt.
Click cancel on the screen that shows Android KVM
Android Studio will offer you to two options. Choose the one "don't start the setup wizard" (not the recommended one), so it will take you to the welcome screen.
Start a new project as usual and Android Studio will say couldn't find the SDK.
Choose the libraries and emulators to download and the rest is the same as usual.

cant install Intel HAXM with Error Failed to configure Driver:unknown error . Failed to open Driver

I am using Windows 7 Ultimate, While installing and studio then creating AVD, This error occurs " Enable VT-x in your BIOS security settings, ensure that your Linux distro has working KVM module.".
Intel virtualization is enabled in BOOT Menu, While installing Intel HAXM manually - "Failed to configure Driver:unknown error. Failed to open Driver"
As directed by this site to check hyper-v is enabled https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/schadinio/2010/07/09/installing-hyper-v-manager-on-windows-7/
and downloaded-> Remote Server Administration Tools for Windows 7 with Service Pack 1 (SP1) from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=7887
And tried to install above software it came with the error
My processor support Virtualization and I have enabled virtualization in the boot menu.
I had the same problem.
I tried all tricks out there, but nothing worked.
The issue only occurred when I installed 7.2.0, so I reverted back to 7.1.0 and it worked again!
Download 7.1.0 and uninstall others and install 7.1.0.
Old releases can be found here.

android studio: unable to turn on the emulator

The error I get is:
emulator: ERROR: x86 emulation currently requires hardware acceleration!
Please ensure Intel HAXM is properly installed and usable.
CPU acceleration status: HAX kernel module is not installed!
I believe it is asked once per week and I have search for different solution but still fail
In the installation, I get the same message as the first image of the follow post.
Intel HAXM installation error - This computer does not support Intel Virtualization Technology (VT-x)
The solution I have tried:
1. disable and enable the VT in the bios----same problem in installation of Intel haxm
2. disable the Hyper-V ---------------------Seem my windows do not conation Hyper-V
3. download the workaround patch released by Intel in
http://software.intel.com/en-us/blogs/2013/04/25/workaround-patch-for-haxm-installation-error-failed-to-configure-driver-unknown
whew execute the .cmd file, it just jump up the cmd for half an second and not thing is happened.
In my process, I have stop my avast anti-virus, and I am using windows 8.1.
Could anyone help?
A couple things you haven't tried :
bcdedit /set nx AlwaysOn (to make sure XD bit is on)
bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off
(and reboot)
