title: How to enable VMX in the HAXM installation?
body: <p>This is frustrating af. My problem seems not to be unique as you can see, there are a lot of similar issues opened here in SO but after playing trial and error for i-dont-know-how-many-hours i give up.</p>
  <p>Some quick context:</p>
  <p>Installed Android Studio. Created my first ADV. Lunch it and then, this appears:</p>

  <p>Tried to install HAXM from the AS settings option (Tools&gt; SDK Manager&gt; SDK Tools and click on the Intel x86 Emulator...). The installation failed:</p>

  <p>Surprised, i went to that path only to check that there was a HAXM installer. Run it and got this:</p>

  <p>So, I think It's obvious that I have to enable that option but I don't know how since all i cand find isn't related to my case.  No, I don't use an AMD processor, and yes, I have the &quot;Hyper-V&quot; option desactived in the &quot;Turn Windows features on/off&quot; panel.</p>
  <p>Do you guys can help me?</p>
  <p>EDIT: I've also desactivated the assisted virtualization option in the settings panel of Avast.</p>
