That all worked fine for me.

You might need to run the HAXM installer as even if the SDK manager says it is "installed", it might not be; it may just be downloaded.

So, find your Android SDK folder; not the Android Studio folder (unless you put them all in one place). My sdk is C:\Users[username]\AppData\Local\Android\sdk - then carry on to \extras\intel\Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager

In there, run the intelhaxm-android installer then restart Android Studio. That should then allow you to run the emulator. Although I'd recommend using a different emulatr than the stock one - it takes SO long to start up!

I hope that helps.

Steve.

The HAXM installer was updated in the last AS update. Have you got that set up correctly? You should have replaced v5.5 with revision 6.0.1.

HAXM

I'm just doing that now and will let you know what adjustment it needs to get it working if any.
