While running android AVD manager it shows error "HAX kernel module is not installed!"

Question

I'm facing problem in running the android AVD manager. While running, it shows an error message-

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!

But I've installed Intel x86 Emulator Accelerator (HAXM installer)

my laptop config:

Windows 8,
Intel Corei5 3210M 2.50GHz

After you installed HAXM, did you restart ADB or your computer? — Raptor, Dec 31 '14 at 09:06
XAXM installer has been installed automatically during installing Anroid Studio! I did not need to install it manually. — Erfan Ahmed, Dec 31 '14 at 09:19
I have the same processor. Windows 8.1. I disabled HyperV and install Intel HAXM in SDK manager. And after that I'm getting the sam error message. Didn't help. — Vlado Pandžić, Jan 25 '16 at 21:09

Create emulator in CPU/ABI in ARM, this error only exist for the Intel processor.

If you want to create AVD CPU/ABI in Intel for this process. Make sure you have instaled HAXM installer on your SDK Manager.

After you download it make sure you run the setup located in:

{SDK_FOLDER}\extras\intel\Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager\intelhaxm.exe

If you get the error "VT not supported" during the installation, disable Hyper-V on windows features. You can execute this command:

dism.exe /Online /Disable-Feature:Microsoft-Hyper-V

You will also need "Virtualization Technology" to be enabled on your BIOS

So are you able to run the setup? – Shraddha Dec 31 '14 at 09:23
Yes I ran the set up and it worked perfectly without any error !! :D – Erfan Ahmed Dec 31 '14 at 09:41
I just installed Android Studio tonight, and HAXM didn't get installed for whatever reason. Android Studio did include the SDK and that installer was in the extras folder. I ran that installer and then everything worked for me on Windows 7 x64. – Jason Winnebeck Jan 07 '15 at 02:34

Here is what you need to do to fix this issue.

1) Navigate to the following path:

C:\Users\Main\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\extras\intel\Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager

2) Run intelhaxm-android.exe as an administrator.

3) Once the installation is complete, Run your project and you will be able to run android emulator on your machine.

NOTE: YOUR VIRTUALIZATION SHOULD BE ENABLED IN THE BIOS SETTINGS.

Hope this helps.
