I understand this question has been asked earlier as well, and I have infact tried everything I could find there but I am still not able to solve the issue.

I am seeing this error when I try to run AVD.

"Intel HAXM is required to run this AVD.
HAXM is not installed.

Install Intel HAXM for better emulation performance.""

if I go ahead and click 'ok' it shows me the installer, I have gone through the installation step there many time withouct changing the preferred RAM size. in the end it says this.

"Running Intel® HAXM installer
Intel HAXM installed successfully!
Done"

but after restarting everything, I see the same problem again.

I ran haxm_check.exe and it says. 

"VT support -- yes
NX support -- yes

I mannually downloaded the package form intel site and installed, it again says installed successfully but AVD somehow can't pick it.

No idea what should I do next.

USING WINDOW 10 / ANDROID STUDIO 2.1.1

EDIT -Seeing some weird behaviour

C:\Users\Ankit\Desktop\haxm>silent_install.bat Intel HAXM installed successfully!

C:\Users\Ankit\Desktop\haxm>silent_install.bat -u Intel HAXM is not installed!

Installation says it's successful, but un-installation says otherwise

    Go to the in SDK Manager and click on Extras then Install intel x86 (Haxm installer) if dosnt work then your CPU graphic not support Haxm – Nitesh Pareek May 25 '16 at 07:29
  • Download the HAXM manually from here: https://software.intel.com/en-us/android/articles/intel-hardware-accelerated-execution-manager/ – Avihoo Mamka May 25 '16 at 07:30
  • already done that.. infact after that visited the downloaded localtion Android\sdk\extras\intel\Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager and run the file "intelhaxm-android.exe" manully, but this also didn't fixed the error – Ankit May 25 '16 at 07:32
  • @AvihooMamka as I mentioned in the question, I have tried that as well.. that gets installed as well. but AVD still not picking it – Ankit May 25 '16 at 07:33

    May be you need to enable `Virtualization` from `BIOS` itself. Check if it is disable then enable it and try. – Jay Rathod May 25 '16 at 07:33
  • @jaydroider I have verified, Virtualization is enabled as well. – Ankit May 25 '16 at 07:36

Ok, seems like I solved it but still I have no idea what was the problem. Infact it's fixed accidentally.

so I had this file there intelhaxm-android.exe, I accidently opened it in winrar and there I could see hax.msi file.. I ran it and setup begun, followed it and all seems fine now.

however directly running intelhaxm-android.exe was not opening any installer setup, it was just opening a command prompt which was getting closed immidiately.

Seems like this was something very specific to my laptop..

  • Ya, you are right. It turns out that intelhaxm-android.exe is a self-exec zip file instead of haxm installation file. – Gian Sep 06 '16 at 09:11
  • If you install it again and again and it says installed successfully but you still can't run the avd , then install manually , download the latest release and run the setup https://github.com/intel/haxm/releases/ – Waqas Tahir Jun 04 '21 at 07:48
