I can't install intel HAXM

问题:

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?

回答1:

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.

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

I faced this problem.I got the solution too.It will work.

Step 1: Go to your BIOS settings and check that INTERNET VIRTUAL TECHNOLOGY is Enabled or Disabled.

And make sure HYPER V is disabled. To disable it : a)Go to Control Panel b)Click on Programs(Uninstall a Program) c)Then click on Turn Windows features on or off , then look for HYPER-V and untick it. And Restart. If disabled then enable it.

Step 2: Try to install Intel HAXM now and restart. If It shows same problem again. go to Step 3.

Step 3: You have to disable Digitally Signed Enforcement. To disable it permanently you have to make sure that Secure Boot option is disabled in your system.

How to check ?

Answer is given in the following link. I found it in Internet.[Thanks whoever made that blog]

link : http://www.windowspasswordsrecovery.com/win8-tips/how-to-disable-uefi-secure-boot-in-windows-8-1-8.html

Step 4: Now restart again.

To disable driver signature enforcement permanently in Windows 10, you need to do the following:

1.Open an elevated command prompt instance. 2.Type/paste the following text:

     bcdedit.exe /set nointegritychecks on

Windows 10 disable driver signature enforcement

Restart Windows 10.

*If you somehow want to enable it again:

1.Type/paste the following text:

     bcdedit.exe /set nointegritychecks off

回答4:

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

or

bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off

Other things you may need to do:

• If using Avast? disable Enable hardware-assisted virtualization under: Settings > Troubleshooting
• bcdedit /set nx AlwaysOn
• sfc /scannow and reboot

Important: After anything you try, Restart the PC and try to run the HAXM installation again

For HP Ultra book with windows 7 enabling hyper-v through bios worked for intel haxm problem.

For enabling hyper-v:-

F10-> Bios advanced setting-> device configurations->enable Hyper-V then install.

It will work.

回答6:

This is what worked for me -

1. Enable Virtualiztion through BIOS (F10-> System Configuration -> Virtualiztion Technology) Depending on your hardware, firmware and BIOS configuration utility the option to enable may be named something else or steps may differ. There is a free software called "Piriform Speccy" which gives information about your machine, which among other things can also be used to check if virtualization is enabled or not on your machine (see screen cap).

2. Download HAXM intaller from Intel site. https://software.intel.com/en-us/android/articles/intel-hardware-accelerated-execution-manager

3. If using avast, disable "Enable hardware-assisted virtualization" under: Settings > Troubleshooting by unchecking.

Do a hard boot (power button) just to be safe.

回答7:

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.

回答8:

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 & 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”.

It should prompt you to install HAXM when creating a new virtual device:

Tools > Android > AVD Manager

It will install through Android Studio automatically.

回答10:

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.

回答11:

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.

回答12:

Enter with Administrator user. First, you must enable it http://www.ghacks.net/2014/11/12/how-to-enable-the-hidden-windows-10-administrator-account/

Install it from C:\Android\sdk\extras\intel\Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager\intelhaxm-andoid.exe

And login with your user. It work for me.

回答13:

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

回答14:

Option 1: Go to Android SDK Folder --> Extra --> Intel and double click on HAXM installer and install it manually.

Option 2: If you do not have latest version of HAXM then you can open sdk manager in android studio and download it.

Option 3: Download HAXM intaller from Intel site. https://software.intel.com/en-us/android/articles/intel-hardware-accelerated-execution-manager

回答15:

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!

回答16:

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.

回答17:

If you are using windows, Hyper-V works via AMD not HAXM.

Try the following: on Android, Click SDK Manager ==>SDK Platforms ==> Show Packages ==>ARM EABI v7a Systems Image.

After downloading the systems image, go to the AVD Manager ==> Create Virtual Device ==> choose device (e.g. 5.4 FWVGA") ==> Marshmallow armeabi v7a Android6 with Google APIs ==> Change the AVD name to anything (eg. myfirst)==> click finish.
