We are working remotely on client's virtual machine. I keep getting the VT-X/disabling hyper-V error even after doing the needful. So, my question is , is it possible to run emulator, which is itself a VM on another VM? If not, suggest a way to work around this problem. Thanks in advance

Generally you can run an emulator on a virtual machine. More specific you maybe need to set some settings and install things. – GeralexGR Sep 22 '17 at 14:59

"after doing the needful" is extremely unclear – James Z Sep 22 '17 at 22:41

is it possible to run android emulator on client's virtual machine?
I think the problem is not you are working remotely on client's virtual machine, the problem is that your Physical machines turn on the Windows feature : Hyper-V, but when you run an Android Emulator, it needs to disabling the Hyper-V, so it gives the VT-X/disabling hyper-V error.
I have test working remotely on client's virtual machine and turn on the Hyper-V. When I run an Android emulator from Android Studio, it failed and gives me the error message :
To solve this problem, you should turn off your hyper-v and restart the computer. If you cant do this, you could try using Visual Studio Emulator for Android. As the document said :
with Hyper-V compatibility you can run the emulator side-by-side with the Windows Phone Emulator and other Hyper-V VMs
Then, you could run the Android emulator.

I suspect that VT-x is turned off. I do not know how to access system BIOS of client's VM to turn it on.. – SRKprakash Sep 26 '17 at 11:36

@SRKprakash, it's possible that you may refer to this case： [HAXM is not installed on this machine](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45273905/haxm-is-not-installed-on-this-machine/45293851#45293851). – Grace Feng Sep 27 '17 at 01:13

I don't know about what happens in a VM. But, emulator is not possible in nested VM. I found that out while installing android studio when I got the error message explaining the same.
Regarding working emulator with VM, we can go with @Grace Feng
