How to resolve this error which I am getting while installing HAXM installer.

Unable to run Intel HAXM installer: Cannot start process, the working directory 'C:\Users\surabhi\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\extras\intel\Hardware_Accelarated_Execution_Manager does not exist.

I also tried to download HAXM installer directly from Intel's website but couldn't succeed and I have also tried enabling and disabling Hyper-V.

It's because the downloaded installer might be missing. So download it again.

Instead of trying to install inside AVD Manager install from SDK Manager.

Android Studio -> Tools -> SDK Manager -> SDK Tools -> Check Intel x86 Emulator Accelerator(HAXM Installer) and Click Apply, it will start download and install.
