Android studio unable to run emulator: Process finished with exit code 2

Question

I am trying to use an emulator in Android Studio 3.1.4, but I keep getting the error messages:

Emulator: Could not launch 'C:\Users\Ian\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\emulator/qemu/windows-x86_64/qemu-system-i386.exe': No such file or directory.

and

Emulator: Process finished with exit code 2.

This happens with every device I am trying to emulate.

I tried increasing the RAM on the emulator, but it had no effect. Any insight into what my problem is would be great.

I'd suggest you read [Run apps on the Android Emulator](https://developer.android.com/studio/run/emulator) and [Create and manage virtual devices](https://developer.android.com/studio/run/managing-avds). — grrigore, Sep 14 '18 at 21:39
Have you checked in SDK tools if you have installed Android Emulator? — exe, Sep 14 '18 at 22:00
I checked, and I do have android emulator installed. If it helps at all, I am trying to use API 23 on a Pixel phone for emulation. — BuffChihuahua, Sep 15 '18 at 01:05

1)Lower your AVD Memory if it set to default try running below 600 MB RAM

2) Try reinstalling the Emulator sdk

Just lowered the AVD memory to 500 MB RAM and got the same error message. What else do you think might be causing this? – BuffChihuahua Sep 14 '18 at 21:42
have You enabled the Virtualisation in Bios in a proper way? – subhash chandru Sep 14 '18 at 21:43

This can be solved by the following step:

Please ensure "Windows Hypervisor Platform" is installed. If it's not installed, install it, restart your computer and you will be good to go.
