I've been struggling with this for the past while and can't find any solutions. HAXM seems to be unable to detect that I have Intel Virtualization Technology enabled in my BIOS.
This issue only arose today after updating android studio and was working perfectly before. I've looked over the Intel and stack overflow forums but it has made no difference, Hyper-V is disabled on my PC and my antivirus is the free avg so I am unsure as to what may be causing it.
I've tried installing it through both the SDK manager in Android Studio and manually but it doesn't change anything.
Figured it out!
All you need to do is uninstall it via the control panel, delete any files that may be there from Android Studio and then install it from Intel's android resources

Today i installed emulator and HAXM update from Android Studio SDK manager. After that i can not start my emulator.
Please note -
I had my emulator working before.
I have enable VT-x tech in bios.
I have disabled security boot.
and tried all answers which i found.
Any help is really appreciated!
After doing some research on this. Finally i solved it out.
Even i have enable VT-X tech and disabled secure boot. My Android Studio failed to load emulator saying dev/kvm not found.
This issue came after updating HAXM. I found some useful answers. which tell this issue is in HAXM 7.2.0. See this issue on github
Steps to solve:
Uninstall Haxm from SDK manager.
downloaded previous version of HAXM v7.1.0 from this release page.
Install this HAXM.
Now everything should work fine as before.
I'm kinda a beginner to Android Studio and I couldn't find a solution for this problem. I've always used Android Studio on my MacBook, but now I needed to use it in my PC. The problem is, when I try to run the emulator, it tells that I need to enable VT-x. I enabled it from my BIOS settings, but I also needed to enable it from control panel in system functions. The problem is that, reading around, I've found that Hyper-v function can be enabled only in Windows 10 Pro version, while I own a Home version. Now, I can't use Android Studio Emulator in my PC only cause I don't own Windows 10 Pro? That sounds kinda weird to me...
Some help would be really appreciated.
Android Studio Emulator runs on Windows 10 Home. In my case, HAXM was installed but only partially because virtualization was not enabled.
For HAXM to install correctly, Virtualization must be enabled on the Intel CPU and this can be done through the UEFI bios settings. It is normally disabled by default, so if this has not been specifically enabled it will probably still be disabled and HAXM installation will not finish installing.
You can download a cpu utility such as Speccy to see if the Virtualization status is enabled or disabled and then re-install HAXM after Virtualization is enabled. Android Studio Emulator should then run on Windows 10 Home without problems.
I am using Dell Inspiron 5521R system to install android development studio. I am getting an error "VT-x is not enabled" while during haxm installation. I checked in bios, there is VT-X option is not showing. Only virtualization option is there and it is enabled already. I also checked Hyper-V option in control panel and this one is also unchecked. but the problem is same as earlier.
I'm assuming you want this for the Android emulator to work properly.
Not really a solution as I tried a many things myself, but an alternative to the Android emulator is Genymotion. It worked for me where I never got Hyper-V to work.
I suggest Genymotion, it is faster, smoother than default Android Studio Emulators
Install Genymotion
Install Genymotion Plugin For Android Studio
Run Genymotion & click Red Button in the Android Studio (Which will appear after you install Genymotion Plugin for Android Studio)
Enjoy Developing
I am trying to setup android studio in my computer and almost everything's done but the last one and that is setting up the emulator. When I try to start it by clicking on AVD Manager I get this error.
Cannot launch AVD in emulator.
Output:
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 have tried to solve this issue by doing the following:
Going into the directory ........sdk\extras\intel\Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager\ and then running the exe file "intelhaxm-android.exe" to install manually. However, it did not work as well and gave the error saying that VT not supported.
To solve that problem I checked that in BIOS and found out it was already enabled.
Then, I searched more about it and found out that the anti virus may be causing it. So, about that, firstly, I do not have any Anti-virus installed yet and secondly I also deactivated Windows Firewall but still getting the error.
And,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,this question is not a duplicate of this question
Emulator: ERROR: x86 emulation currently requires hardware acceleration
or any other one on stackoverflow.
I recommend you use Genymotion instead of HAXM. It's faster and saves you a lot of time.

I had the same issues with HAXM, I just found a solution. In the BIOS, I had "VT -d" enabled, I juste disabled it and everything worked well.
Hoping I helped you.
(look like VT -d is disable-ing VTx).
But Genymotion is faster than Android Studio emulator by the way, and comes with more options.
Do you have an old computer? I use Andriod Studio but I had the same problem trying to enable HAXM on my PC in order to use the emulator. My PC is several years old and runs Windows7.
I tried an alternate method but it was so slow that I have decided I needed to replace my PC.
I been having a problem with android emulators on both Android Studio and Eclipse. I cannot get it to run becuase the Intel HAXM is not installed. I installed it via the sdk manager but still cannot run the intelhaxm.exe. because VT-x needs to be enabled but I don't know how to do that on an Acer Aspire since its blocked off in the bios. Is there a way to get around this? Thank you.
It seems as if support for VT-x is may be found in the advanced BIOS features. There is a thread that discusses this topic, along with providing a tutorial on how to expose the "hidden" BIOS features, may be found here: How to enable VT-x/AMD-v in Aspire V5-122P bios?
