Beginner - Emulator Doesn't Install Problem

Hello Folks:

I've spent many years writing many lines of C++ code for Windows. It's time to try Android apps.

Last night I installed Android Studio 4.0 and started the following tutorial by Caleb Curry:


It looks like a good tutorial, but I'm open to suggestions.

After several hours I'm wondering if my system is compatible with the Android Emulator Hypervisor Driver for AMD.

I've never run a virtual machine, so I'm probably doing something dumb.

My system's two years old with an AMD Ryzen 5 1600 processor. It's a low ball system purchased in early 2018 after my very nice laptop died, when prices for everything were through the roof.

The answer might be there, with the Ryzen 5 processor.

Someone responded to a question in Reddit that they're running 6 virtual machines on their AMD 1600:

I'll go into more detail in case the processor's not the problem.

This site says I have to turn off three Windows features:

Those features weren't turned on in my system:

The Component Installer started off all right:

This is what my BIOS screen looks like. See anything I need to do, or look at?

Suggestions?
