Android studio won't react to "uninstalled" Haxm . It keeps showing the message "Virtual machine acceleration driver is out-of-date. Reinstall inter Haxm."
On my windows 7 machine, I recently installed Android Studio 2.1.3. In SDK manager I also first installed intel haxm installer 6.0.3. However when I open AVD manager to create virtual device the error occurs - "Virtual machine acceleration driver is out-of-date. Reinstall inter Haxm."
.
I tried - 1) I tracked the intelhaxm.exe file under the sdk folder and ran installation with administrative rights. Result = Same error message appears.
2) I uninstalled intelhaxm installed by SDK manager. Obtained the IntelHaxm installer from the Intel site and manually installed it. Result = Same error message appears.
Note: Curiously under the Registry, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->Software->HAXM->HAXM, I see Haxm binery data value "0" but I expect it to be "1"!
3) After frustrated 3 days with no help by googling, I uninstalled the intelhaxm. EVEN THEN, the same error message appears in the AVD manager. when I have none intelhaxm installed, how can it report "Intelhaxm is out-of-date, reinstall" ?
Is the AVD manager not looking at the intelhaxm on my system at all? Is it a Haxm problem? or it is a Android Studio problem?
