Android emulators causing problems on Win 10 Pro

[EchoBinary]

I have tried:

- Nox

- Bluestacks

- AndY

- MEmu

and some others...  they all either don't load or cause BSOD.

 

I have:

- made sure that all my drivers are up to date (Driver Easy)

- made sure Hyper-V is removed from Optional Windows Features

 

Here is the strange thing.. when I open task manager there is a Hyper-V Host Compute Service (vmcompute.exe) & Vmmem in there.

I have tried running the emulators both with those running and after killing the above processes. Still they hang or give BSOD.

 

I have also tried all the above with the intel virtualization options configured in BIOS and without (MEmu states that is it a requirement to have it enabled).

 

Does anyone know what could be going on here?

BSOD.

That's definitely not normal. The fastest way to determine if it is a software problem would be to reinstall windows; if you can't do that, try booting into safe mode and see if you get the same problems.

Hyper V is going on. Not just those 2 processes.

You will need to uninstall Hyper V (you will find this in Configuration -> Programs -> Windows Programs)

I did say in OP that Hyper V wasnt installed...

Well those 2 processes are from Hyper V. So while it appears to be gone, it isnt by the looks of it.

Maybe install and deinstall once more?

 

Run this in powershell (admin) 

Disable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V-All

 

And see if that helps

You don't need to uninstall hyper v, you only need to disable it. You can do it via powershell as suggested above. 

 

Most (all?) of the emulators run on Intel HAXM which you need to install separately as well, one big issue could be if you have an AMD processor, because HAXM doesn't run on anything other than Intel.
