Genymotion problems in windows 10


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.


UPDATE: This is fixed in the latest Genymotion and doesn't happen to me any more.


NOTE: this is using Genymotion 2.5.3, VirtualBox 5.0.0 r101573 and updated Windows 10 as of today.

I'm having all kinds of problems as well, I finally managed to get it working:

  • Delete genymotion and virtualbox
  • Remove any unremoved files in folders like AppData and Program Files
  • Restart
  • Install Genymotion
  • Install VirtualBox latest
  • Run Genymotion as admin, just in case
  • Install an image that I didn't try before to make sure it's not using any cached data.

It worked fine.

Sometimes, I still freezes and stops working if I try to start a second device. The solution is to:

  • Close Genymotion, Android studio, etc
  • Force kill adb.exe and any VirtualBox processes.
  • Start Genymotion again and start a device.
