Android Studio emulator not working/ HAXM not installed

Image

The silent install is passing but the regular haxm installation is not passing. When I go to run the emulator, I get the "Haxm is required to run this AVD - Unknown error". I have no idea what else I can do. I am currently using a Mac with Sierra. I have pretty tried what all the other stack overflow solutions say but nothing is working.

Things I've tried:
- uninstalling and re-installing android studio
- running the silent instal

In Android studio go to: Preferences -> Appearances & Behavior -> System Settings -> Android SDK then choose the SDK Tools tab and choose to download "Intel x86 Emulator Accelerator (HAXM installer)" and click apply

enter image description here

To verify that Intel HAXM is running, open a terminal window and execute the following command:

kextstat | grep intel

If Intel HAXM is operating correctly, the command will show a status

message indicating that the kernel extension named

"com.intel.kext.intelhaxm" is loaded.

To stop or start Intel HAXM, use the following commands:

Stop:

sudo kextunload –b com.intel.kext.intelhaxm

Start:

sudo kextload –b com.intel.kext.intelhaxm
