Title: Enable hardware-assisted virtualization
Post by: SeTi2k on August 09, 2016, 11:26:18 AM

Hello all,

I'm having problems installing HAXM (hardware acceleration) on my computer.
I need this to be able to run simulated android devices.

Right now I tried everything, and I'm like 99% sure that it's due to Avast I can not install.
A lot of forums tell me to disable the checkbox "Enable hardware-assisted virtualization"
But for some reason I don't have this checkbox, could anyone tell me how to disable this?

This is the option that I don't have:

Thank you.
Kind regards.

Yes Fantastic! That's exactly what I needed, it works now.

I must have completely missed this because I was on that page before... strange.

Thank you so much!
