Xamarin: Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Nexus 7 (Lollipop)

Question

I am using Xamarin Andriod player for VS 2015,

I looked into this error and I think it is due to virtualization being disabled in windows BIOS. I have enabled and tried again, still it is exists. I have checked the Xamarin VS log. It is shown error as:

 Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Nexus 7 (Lollipop).

 Failed to open/create the internal network 'HostInterfaceNetworking-VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter' (VERR_INTNET_FLT_IF_NOT_FOUND).

 Failed to attach the network LUN (VERR_INTNET_FLT_IF_NOT_FOUND).

I am not sure what to do next to fix this, could some one help me please?

Answer 1

You can try this:

1. Open Windows Network Connections
2. Right click on VirtualBox Host only adapter that created
3. Choose properties
4. Check "VirtualBox NDIS6 Bridged Networking driver"
5. disable and Enable the adapter
