Android Studio, Creating a new virtual device: Error message: "No emulator installed"

I am running Android Studio 2.2.2 on Windows 10. I am trying to create a new virtual device. From within the "Select System Image" panel, I get the error message: "No emulator installed"

No matter what image I select (Marshmallow, Lollipop, etc.), I get a "recommendation" in red font: No emulator installed.

I click on the text that says "Install Emulator", but nothing happens.

Under "Select a system image", for each of the release names (Marshmallow, Lollipop, etc.), there was previously an option to download, and I went through that without any apparent error, but I still get the recommendation message that no emulator is installed. (I thought perhaps by selecting download, I was installing an emulator.)

The problem persists even if I close and re-start Android Studio.

My problem could be similar to the problem reported here: No emulator installed - Android Studio In the above link, the person reports getting the "No emulator installed" message even after installing an emulator. But no solution was reported.

I am very new to Android Studio, so thanks in advance for any help you can give.

Here is a link to the screenshot with my problem: [Screenshot of Android 2.2.2 panel with "no emulator installed" message1

I also faced this problem three days ago. I just did these things:

  1. Delete the folder of emulator and system image from the location where your android studio is installed.

  2. Open the Android Studio, delete virtual device if you have created it earlier.

  3. Again make a virtual device and reinstall emulator.

It take some time but have patience, in my case it worked well.

for windows got to -> turn windows features on and of if Hyper-v is selected , then deselect it and restart your pc.

  1. then open android studio->sdk manager -> sdk Tools and download Anroid Emulator

it should work.

if not then

  1. go to your sdk folder where you have installed it. then extras->intel->Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager->intelhaxm-android

install it if not and pray for it to the almighty :)
