Download Intel HAXM
About Intel HAXM:
Intel HAXM (also known as the Intel Hardware Accelerated Execution Manage), an advanced Android emulator and a virtualization manager which allows developers for quickly and reliably developing Android applications directly on x86-based PCs running the modern Windows OS. When paired with the other software packages which are needed to complete all necessary components for the app development (like Android SDK and plugins needed for managing Google APIs), it can provide unravelling hardware Android emulation needed for the software projects of all sizes and all complexities.
Because it relies on the features that are built-in in Intel CPU products, the Intel HAXM can only run as it was intended for processors that have hardware support for the Intel VT-x, Intel EM64T (Intel 64), and the Execute Disable (XD) Bit features. Also, beware that this software WILL NOT work on the non-Intel CPUs or Intel processors which lack these hardware features. Another limitation is HAXM can only work with Android x86 and the x86_64 emulator images provided by Intel. It can’t process ARM Android emulator images and non-Intel x86 or x86_64 Android emulator’s images.
Originally developed for working on Windows OS and macOS, reach of this cross-platform hardware assisted virtualization engine has expanded to NetBSD and Linux. While it’s recommended that Intel HAXM is to be downloaded and installed through Android SDK (found in Extras tab) or Android studio (marked as optional “Performance” item), it can even be manually downloaded by standalone installer offered by the Intel. To verify if your installation is completed successfully, open Command Prompt with the Administrative Privileges, and then execute the command “sc query intelhaxm” and then wait for the status message which says "4 RUNNING".
