Unable to start the Windows Phone Emulator

I've seen this error several times. Each time I google deeply and finally made me reinstall my windows and all stuffs. Please help, I don't want to reinstall everything again. The error is:

Unable to start the Windows Phone Emulator

Windows Phone Emulator is unable to start because 
the hypervisor is not running. The likely cause is
that hardware-assisted virtualization is not enabled.

Check your computer's BIOS to ensure that hardware-
assisted virtualization and hardware-assisted data 
execution features are enabled.

Finally after struggling all day, I solved it ^^ I post the solution here so that somebody don't have to waste time just like me to solve such a silly error!

  1. Just simple disable Hyper-V option in Turn Windows features on or off (you could open this by hit the combination Windows + S, this will open the search box, then type "Turn Windows features on or off"
  2. restart your PC
  3. enable the Hyper-V option by using the same way as step 1.

Enjoy coding :D
