I've encountered the exact same problem on Android Studio Jellyfish 2023.3.1, and managed to resolve it.

First of all, you should make sure that virtualization and Hyper-V are allowed on your BIOS settings. If not, run the systeminfo.exe command on cmd to find out the BIOS version. Also, make sure that the requirements for Hyper-V are satisfied on your machine. Then manually alter the BIOS settings - enable virtualization and hyper-v.

If Virtualization and Hyper-V are already enabled in the BIOS, then go to Windows Features and enable Hyper-V. Here's a guide from Microsoft on how to do so. After you change the settings, you might need to restart the PC.

Afterward, go to the SDK Manager\SDK Tools and install 'Android Emulator Hypervisor Driver (installer)'. If it still doesn't work I would suggest re-installing Android Studio and reinstalling the SDK tools. You should also try to install the hypervisor manually from GitHub as others have suggested.

Good Luck!

Android Studio really has a problem with AEHD installation via SDK Manager. You can bypass this issue downloading AEHD from github repository and install manually. https://developer.android.com/studio/run/emulator-acceleration

The Android Emulator hypervisor driver can also be downloaded and installed from GitHub. After unpacking the driver package, run silent_install.bat at a command line with administrator privileges.
