I have MacOS 10.11 El Capitain installed. Today I got the notification that Intel HAXM 6.0.4 is available and the Android SDK Manager suggested me to remove Intel HAXM 6.0.3. I did it.

But now, I got the message that Intel HAXM 6.0.4 is not compatible with MacOS.

Android SDK Manager Intel HAXM 6.0.4 not supported

Is there a way to get the old version 6.0.3 back? Or is there any alternative?

There are already reported issues:

Here you would find and download HAXM 6.0.3 version: https://software.intel.com/en-us/android/articles/intel-hardware-accelerated-execution-manager

Hope it will help

As described in the Issue it is possible to reinstall Intel HAXM 6.0.3 with the built-in Android Studio SDK Manager.

Android Studio SDK Manager

You can also re-install from the command line (I'm assuming you have the 'android' executable in your path):

  1. list all the available packages, including obsolete and outdated ones, with android list sdk -a

  2. Look through the list for the "Intel x86 Emulator Accelerator (HAXM installer), revision 6.0.3" (it was #172 for me).

  3. Install it with android update sdk -a -u -t 172

Explanation of parameters:

-a examines all packages

-u runs the command without the UI

-t tells the update command to only install packages that match the filter provided

172 is the filter parameter. In this case, it is the package number from android list sdk -a that we want to install.

You can also pass -n to perform a dry-run if you want to verify your filter parameter(s).
