I can t install intel HAXM

Question

I installed Android Studio and I had no problems with that  However  when I tried to run the emulator  it said that Intel HAXM was not installed   So I found the installer  ran it  and it even though it said my laptop supports it  that it was not enabled  I went  enabled the Intel Virtualization Technology  VT-x   but I still got the same message   I hear something about Hyper-V needs to be disabled  but when I go to Turn Windows features on off  I cannot find it on that list   Can someone help me with this

It should prompt you to install HAXM when creating a new virtual device   Tools  gt  Android  gt  AVD Manager   It will install through Android Studio automatically

Good description here  https   developer android com studio run emulator-acceleration html  You may check current HAXM status with following command   sc query intelhaxm  If you use Windows 10 Home  all issues about Hyper-V is irrelevant for you as it is not supported  Pro is required  and you will not have conflicts     Remark  trying to update HAXM to latest version incidentally removed it  but then can t update with SDK manager  as it shows that latest version 6 1 1 is unsupported for Windows  seems configuration is broken  found 6 1 1 for Mac and 6 0 6 for Windows only inside  So would recommend manually download HAXM and install as described  copy to sdk location sdk extras intel Hardware Accelerated Execution Manager and run the silent install bat

I think your problem was that you thought that the installer in Android SDK Manager would actually INSTALL the Intel HAXM  But the hook is that it WILL NOT INSTALL it  What it does is extracts the files needed for  really  install Intel HAXM   I found that out when I got the same problem and then read this in Intel s web page      Downloading through Android  SDK Manager          Other steps          5  The SDK Manager will download the installer to the  extras  directory  under the main SDK directory  Even though the SDK manager says  Installed  it actually means that the Intel HAXM executable was downloaded  You will still need to run the installer from the  extras  directory to get it installed       6  Run the installer inside the  sdk extras intel Hardware Accelerated Execution Manager  directory and follow the installation instructions for your platform    So all I needed to do was go to folder where my Android SDK was  opened that folder  sdk location sdk extras intel Hardware Accelerated Execution Manager  and run the silent install bat   After this when I launched my emulator  it said this      HAXM is working and emulator runs fast virt mode   and everything works as should   You can also use some useful parameters with silent install bat    -v Print HAXM version -c Check VT NX capability of the platform -h Print usage

THE SHORT ANSWER  Disable Microsoft Defender Application Guard None of the answers helped me   Also  most of the answers here were addressed elsewhere online   I spent hours trying to solve this problem   After much hesitation  I decided to go on a hunch   I was suspicious about msinfo32 exe showing a Hypervisor was running  but it would not provide additional detail   I went into the services manager   I saw an instance of a hypervisor service was running  I went to disable it   Before disabling  I was asked if I am sure and was informed that a couple of other services would stop   One of the other services was Microsoft Defender Application Guard for Internet Explorer   I disabled this and FINALLY after hours of research on this topic was able to install Intel HAXM for Android Studio on my i5-4430 with Z87 chipset  It was not enough to merely disable Hyper V and Windows Hypervisor Platform

I ve figured out  Try to disable Security Boot Control in BIOS options  http   remontka pro secure-boot-disable   sorry for russian examples  Or try to start system without Digital signature  only for one loading   I had had many unlucky attempts with  HAXM installer  before I disabled this line  At the beginning I thought that s because Windows 10 Home was installed  and there re many limits

After some trials  knowing that I had all the factors stated in this thread and other threads properly configured  I still got this error in Android Studio   Even after installing externally  it seems Android Studio could not discover that HAXM is already installed  unless it gets to install it itself   As a solution that worked for me  under User AppData Local Android sdk extras intel Hardware Accelerated Execution Manager which android has downloaded when attempting to install HAXM  click the installer and uninstall the software  then re-try from Android Studio to install it  it should work now

If you are using windows then edit your AVD config to ARMEABI image instead of X86  Also using ARM will give better performance  HAXM installer is required only if you use X86 image

I think that you would install Android SDK files not in  your PC  Appdata Local Android sdk  default Path   Also there was nothing when you double click  intelhaxm-android exe  file   If it was  Browse  your PC  Appdata Local Temp intel HAXM 6 0 3 yyyy-mm-dd hh mm ss   or silent   then you must see  hax64   or hax  file  and simply invoke this file

I probably tried all the solutions mentioned above but all in vain  To summarize  I did    I enable the virtualization going to BIOS setting       Uncheck Hyper-V option by going to Turn Windows features on or off       Download HAXM directly from the website https   software intel com en-us android articles intel-hardware-accelerated-execution-manager and install it  Uninstall and reinstall Android Studio  Copy the HAXM from my another system where HAXM was working fine  from the location C  Users UserName AppData Local Android Sdk extras intel   Nothing worked for me  What worked for me  I noticed the issue  unable to run mksdcard sdk tool  when I try to download SDK platform So after some research  I found some SDK tools such as mksdcard exe require Microsoft Visual C   runtime 2015-2019   So based on my system type  for me it was x64   I downloaded the latest Microsoft Visual C   Redistributable for Visual Studio 2019 from the link https   visualstudio microsoft com downloads   Detailed answer given here  Android Studio install failed - unable to run mksdcard sdk tool in Windows      After downloading and installing Visual C    the error  unable to run mksdcard sdk tool  was fixed  also when I try to install HAXM after this  it was install successfully  Everything was fine  I was also able to create AVD now which was also a problem when HAXM was not install

Alright  so I did everything I could possibly find online  and nothing worked    So I went to the Intel website  and I downloaded the HAXM installer that they provide  instead of using the one downloaded through Android Studio    The installation actually went through with this installer and it was installed successfully  Then I open Android Studio  and the emulator finally loaded   So  for anyone else having this problem  just download the installer directly from the Intel website    Here s the link   https   software intel com en-us android articles intel-hardware-accelerated-execution-manager

If Nothing Helps then it means Device Guard and Credential Guard are using the virtualization  I had to disable them by downloading and running the following script from microsoft site   DG Readiness Tool v3 5 ps1 -Disable   You may need to run this first if it doesn t allow to run the command  Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted   Once you do it  you need to restart and confirm disable both when asked just before boot   hope it helps

How I solved this problem  Step-1  Downloaded the Android Studio and installed it  But it failed to install HAXM  Step-2  Then ran the AVD  Then it prompts to create a virtual device  But it also failed  Step-3  I downloaded the latest HAXM from intel s GitHub source  From here github com intel haxm releases latest Step-4  Then installed HAXM manually  Documentation is here  Installing Standalone Intel HAXM on Windows Step-5  Then again tried to create a virtual device of Pie  It successfully created it  But if your Step-5 fails anyhow  there may another solution  When downloading the  zip file  it will show you the SDK path and also the source path of the  zip file  So you can manually download the  zip and can place it to the SDK path folder  Then again can try to create the virtual device

Make sure the emulator is not running while installing HAXM  Otherwise  there will be an error which you only see when using the standalone installer but not within Android Studio or IntelliJ Idea

None of the suggestions worked on their own    Here is what worked for me   chmod -R 777  ANDROID HOME  Then try to install it via android studio -  sdk manager  If its not there  reinstall latest version of Android studio over your current installation  HAXM will show up in SDK manager after that   If you do not have ANDROID HOME set  then YOU are part of the problem   The value of it can be found inside Android Studio project structure  On MAC  just type CMD   and look at SDK Location on left   Simply run chmod -R 775

Note  this is not an answer because I could not find a solution  But I think the information may be useful for others  and it wouldn t be practical as a comment   I have tried all of the steps detailed in the various docs but I could not get Android Emulator to work on my AMD Ryzen 7       Most answers work only for Intel CPUs  If you have an AMD CPU  like me  an AMD Ryzen 7  you need to know about some restrictions and you have to use WHPX instead of HAXM   I found this on MS s site  Because the Android emulator currently supports AMD hardware acceleration only on Linux  hardware acceleration is not available for AMD-based computers running Windows   Fortunatelly there is a way to make it work but configuring hardware acceleration for an AMD CPU is a bit more complex      Requirements and recommendations    - AMD CPU recommendation  AMD Ryzen CPU   - Android Studio 3 2 Beta 1 or higher   - Android Emulator version 27 3 8 or higher   - Windows 10 with April 2018 Update or higher      To use WHPX acceleration on Windows  you must enable the Windows   Hypervisor Platform option in the Turn Windows features on or off   dialog box  For changes to this option to take effect  restart your   computer       Additionally  the following changes must be made in the BIOS settings    - AMD CPU  Virtualization or SVM must be enabled    Note that there are further restrictions as well         You can t run a VM-accelerated emulator inside another VM  such as a VM hosted by VirtualBox  VMWare  or Docker  You must run the emulator   directly on your system hardware    You can t run software that uses another virtualization technology at the same time that you run the accelerated emulator  For example    VirtualBox  VMWare  and Docker currently use a different   virtualization technology  so you can t run them at the same time as   the accelerated emulator       Some more info  Android Emulator - AMD Processor  amp  Hyper-V Support  This recommendation did not help either      Please note  More recent versions of the emulator  27 2 8  27 3 0  or   later   require an emulator flag while the feature is in the preview    To do this  create or edit the file   C  Users  android advancedFeatures ini and add the   line    WindowsHypervisorPlatform   on     or start the emulator from the   command line with    -feature WindowsHypervisorPlatform

I tried the following  1  Directly installed HAXM from Intel 2  Tried multiple times to un-install and re-install Android Studio with same default paths in C drive  3  Un-install various other software including QEMU which also uses HAXM  which might have been interfering with Android recognizing HAXM    Solution was  1  To un-install Android Studio and install it on D drive including the SDK  This solved the problem
