You can try to enable it if you do not need OpenGL support, but running in this mode is unsupported as some features are not functional in this mode. Our emulator is not officially supported in a nested virtualization environment (like when running under VMWare Fusion). He is the response from Visual Studio team: The following solution is not a supported & official response from the Visual Studio Team but does allow you to use it inside of VMWare Fusion. So the first thing I done was hit the lovely smiley face in the main window, to give the Visual Studio team feedback on this and within 3 to 4 hours I received a reply on how to resolve this. So after downloading the new Visual Studio 2015 release, I am quite keen to do some mobile development so I was keen to look at the Visual Studio Android Emulator, but upon opening the application & starting one of the emulators that are already come pre installed, I was greeted with an error.
I thought I would share a quick blog post for others who may have recently downloaded Visual Studio 2015 this week who use a Mac as their main machine & VMWare Fusion to run a copy of Windows on it.
