Android Question Run time error on starting AVD -Win 97

[kps]

Hello all,

After creating the AVD "6"in_Phone_Platform_28_default", and on starting it, I get this error message.

Error:
RegGetValueW failed 2 The system cannot find the file specified.


emulator: ERROR: x86_64 emulation currently requires hardware acceleration!
Please ensure Windows Hypervisor Platform (WHPX) is properly installed and usable.
CPU acceleration status: Unable to open HAXM device: ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND
More info on configuring VM acceleration on Windows:

If you are using an Intel CPU: please check that virtualization is enabled in the BIOS and that HAXM is installed and usable.
Note: if Hyper-V or Credential Guard is enabled, the emulator will not work with HAXM.
See https://github.com/intel/haxm/issues/105#issuecomment-470927735 for info on how to disable Credential Guard.
If you are using an AMD CPU or need to run alongside Hyper-V-based apps such as Docker, we recommend using Windows Hypervisor Platform.General information on acceleration: https://developer.android.com/studio/run/emulator-acceleration.

I have downloaded and installed HAXM. Here is the installation message.

The link in the error message talks about Win 10 machines.
I am on Win 97, Intel CPU, DELL machine.

How do I fix this ?

So far, I have been using my phone for testing the examples.
Since the screenshot and video capture can be done only on emulators, I want to use the emulator now.
I also want to use the USB debugging instead of the Wireless Bridge.

Windows 7 not 97.

Best option is to use a real device. You should enable USB debug mode and the screenshot and video features will work.

Are you running Windows 32 bit? You are trying to run a 64 bit AVD.

Oops, yes, Win 7, not 97.
I am running Windows 64 bit.
I will try USB Debug mode if that allows me Screen shot & Video capture.
That's the purpose, anyway.

Thanks & Regards,

Tried USB debug mode now. I could take a screen shot and record a video also.
Thanks a lot.

Thank you. But now that I got what I wanted through USB debugging, I will skip the Emulator, for now.

Enter your PC BIOS and check that Hardware Virtualization (VT-X) is enabled.
Often it start disabled.

I checked. It is enabled.
Here is the screen shot.

I think "haxm_check.exe" checks this aspect and confirms this in its report.

C:\HAXM>haxm_check.exe
VT support -- yes
NX support -- yes
