Why is Genymotion not working?

Genymotion Desktop has been designed to run in a physical environment, not in a virtual machine. For this reason, Genymotion Desktop will not work if run in a Windows, Linux or macOS VM. Also, Genymotion Desktop has been designed to work on a workstation, not a server.

Does Genymotion work Windows 11?

Yes, but you need to use VirtualBox 6.1. 30 or above. If you already have a previous VirtualBox version installed, or if you installed Genymotion with the Genymotion+VirtualBox installer, you first need to remove VirtualBox.

Why is Genymotion so slow?

Genymotion is based on virtualization. Make sure your CPU virtualization technology feature (Intel VT-x or AMD-V) is enabled in your computer motherboard BIOS. Another option might be to increase the RAM allotted to your Genymotion device.

You may try the following process:

  1. Run VirtualBox as administrator (By default is installed in C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox)
  2. Go to File -> Preferences -> Network (Left Navigation List) -> Host-only Networks (on the right tab)
  3. Select an adapter and click edit (the small screwdriver on the right)
  4. On "Adapter" tab set
    • IPv4 Address: 192.168.1.201
    • IPv4 Network Mask: 255.255.255.0
  5. On DHCP Server Tab set
    • Server Address: 192.168.1.100
    • Server Mask: 255.255.255.0
    • Lower Address Bound: 192.168.1.101
    • Upper Address Bound: 192.168.1.199
  6. Click Ok (Host-only Network details), click Ok (VM Settings)
  7. Open Genymotion (as Admin), install a new virtual device (you have deleted all past devices) and start it

It worked with Genymotion 2.5.3 and VB 4.3.12, hope it helps !!

In my case (Windows 10 with VirtualBox 5.0.10 and Genymotion 2.6.0) i had to:

  • Go to network connections (run control netconnections from cmd)

  • Right click and properties on VirtualBox Host-Only Network

  • Enable VirtualBox NDIS6 Bridged Networking Driver

Also some times it helps to delete the virtual device and to download it again.
