Emulator: ERROR: x86 emulation currently requires hardware acceleration

The problem is very simple and am going to solve that problem in very simple way. Problem is to lunch android app from Android Studio. The problem is as below described:
  • Emulator: ERROR: x86 emulation currently requires hardware acceleration!
  • Please ensure Intel HAXM is properly installed and usable.
  • CPU acceleration status: HAX kernel module is not installed!
First step to open SDK Manager (In Android Studio, go to Tools > Android > SDK Manager) and Download Intel x86 Emulator Accelerator (HAXM installer) if you haven't as below screen shot:

Now go to your SDK directory C:\users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\extras\intel\Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager\ and run the file named intelhaxm-android.exe. This will almost fix your problem. In case you get an error like "Intel virtualization technology (vt,vt-x) is not enabled". Go to your BIOS settings and enable Hardware Virtualization.
Restart Android Studio and then try to start the AVD again.
It might take a minute or 2 to show the emulator window.
