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?

I am a student majoring in computer engineering.
I downloaded 'Android Studio' to take an Android programming course, but it wasn't installed properly like the picture.
android studio install fail
So I found the same error as this picture during HAXM download and installation.
HAXM's error
There are a total of four issues with VMX support, VMX support, EPT support, and Hyper-V disablement. When I searched several places, MS said it could run commands on Windows PowerShell, but it didn't work because of lack of privileges. I also looked up Control Panel - Program features, but there was no Hyper-V folder. There was a program like VMware, but it was deleted from the control panel. (CPU is using Intel just in case.) I need your help. I'm sorry for my poor English.
It is good that you've already installed HAXM wich enables the virtulization in Android Studio. But this HAXM needs to work with the machine's virtualization system which is found in the BIOS of each machine, In some machines it comes disabled.
All you need to do is restart the computer and open the BIOS settings. Then from there, search all tabs and look for the virtualization checkbox and check (enable it).
After you lauch again Android Studio.... It should work now.
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
I have created AVD, but when I try to run android program, it is showing an
error
Your CPU does not support VT-x
I enabled virtualization technology in BIOS, but still this error comes up when I try to run my android program.
There are two scenarios:
Using VMware: go to "WM" > "Settings" > "Processors" and Activate VT-x as below:
Using OS installed on HW: as others mentioned if your CPU supports that you should activate it in your BIOS.
According to Android Documentation, to run an emulator the development system's CPU should support one of the following virtualization extensions technologies:
Intel Virtualization Technology (VT, VT-x, vmx)
AMD Virtualization (AMD-V, SVM) -- only supported for Linux
Your CPU is Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor E7300, which according to the manufacturer does not support Intel Virtualization Technology (VT-x). That's the reason for this error.
The workaround is to use an alternative Android Emulator, e.g. Genymotion, as already suggested.
I suggest that you Just need to follows steps:
First,Go to Control Panel → Program and Feature.
Then, Click on Turn Window Features on and off. A window opens.
Then,Uncheck Hyper-V option and restart your system.
Now, you can Start HAXM installation.
Check this also https://software.intel.com/en-us/android/articles/installation-instructions-for-intel-hardware-accelerated-execution-manager-windows
OR
You can use Genymotion
If you have changed settings from BIOS, then you just need a restart of your machine.
There couple of solutions you can try
You can Make an AVD With ARM Instead of HAXM.
Other solutions can be just to enable Intel Virtualization Technology
from BIAS.
Or you can use an alternative emulator like genymotion to fix this
problem.
If the above solutions bother you then you can use a physical device for testing purposes.
If you're
Using VMware: go to "VM" > "Settings" > "Processors" and Activate VT-x as below:
Then go to your Turn Windows feature on or off and uncheck virtual Machine Platform and Windows Hypervisor Platform as below:
Thank me :)
For those who might have the problem in these days,
you might try the steps described here:
https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2018/07/android-emulator-amd-processor-hyper-v.html
Also according to other answers, you have to be sure that CPU does
support virtualization, and that the virtualziation is on.

I created an AVD with minimal configuration but it shows an error message that HAXM not installed.
Currently Android Studio IDE provides Virtualisation Technology for simulation for better and speedy performance.
For that purpose you have to install an patch of "HAXM". Virtualisation patch available at Android Download Manager.
after successful installation of that patch you have to enable the Virtualisation from system BIOS.
after that simulator will work surely with better and speedy performance.
Worthy note:
Some other programs use virtualisation while you would not expect them to, thus preventing android studio to install haxm
(namely in my case was avast antivirus)
I'm on a Hp dm4 Intel Core i5 machine with Windows 7. My Android Studio gives me the following error when I compile my application.
After some Googling I found that I have to install Intel Hardware Accelerated Executed Manager that comes with Android SDK. But when I try to do that I get this error.
Does this somehow relate to Hardware Virtualization? I already have it enabled from the BIOS.
I don't understand what the problem is. Please help!
EDIT: I downloaded the Windows Hardware-Assisted Virtualization Detection Toolfrom the Microsoft website and it says everything is fine. This is crazy!
It involves two steps:
enabling virtualization technology : I supposed you did it right.
disabling hyper-V : For this , please refer the below video link:
disabling hyper-v
If it doesn't work out please follow the blog mentioned below.

Virtualization Technology is enabled at the BIOS level means feature will be functional.
Try to check this video
https://software.intel.com/en-us/videos/setting-up-intel-haxm-on-windows
also try to go BIOS - Advanced and Enable "No Execute (NX) Memory Protection" feature.
For me after the change it's working very fine.
You need to go In BIOS - Advanced and enable the "No Execute (NX) Memory Protection" feature. Hope it helps.
Make sure you can use virtualization at the OS level - check it with this tool: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=592
Also, I would suggest using Genymotion https://www.genymotion.com instead of the official emulators, as it's way more faster.
If you are using Avast Antivirus. Disable hardware virtualization from Avast settings. Avast uses hardware virtualization to improve performance.
In Avast!, go to Settings -> Troubleshooting -> disable Hardware-Assisted Virtualization -> Reboot your machine.
--> Install HAXM
-->Enable Avast virtualization again
It worked for me
Just for information:
I tried to install android 9 on a virtual nexus 5 device, and the option "hardware acceleration" was not available, only "automatic".
I solved installing android 8 in a virtual nexus 6.
I still don't know if it is a problem related to android 9, or compatibility between A9 and N5, since I am a very beginner in this, but maybe this can help somebody else.
