How to Set Up Genymotion Emulator?

- Briefly: Choose the version for your OS, download the installer, run it, and follow the installation wizard (for Windows, you can take the installer with VirtualBox included or install VirtualBox separately / enable Hyper-V for QEMU). After installation, run Genymotion, log in, and create/start a virtual device. 🚀

- Steps (general):

1. Go to the Genymotion download page and download the appropriate installer for Windows / macOS / Linux.

2. (Windows) If you use VirtualBox, download the *-vbox.exe* version (includes VirtualBox) or install VirtualBox separately. For QEMU, enable Hyper-V in Windows (not recommended for Home).

3. Run the installer, select the language, installation folder, create a shortcut, and click Install → Finish. Restart the system if necessary.

4. Open Genymotion, click Sign in, and log in to your account (for the free Pro trial, activate the trial key).

5. In the Device Manager, create/download a virtual device and click Start.

- Important notes:

- Genymotion Desktop requires a hypervisor (VirtualBox by default).

- For the free Pro trial, you need to activate the trial through your account.

- Check the OS requirements (for example, Windows 10/11 - 64-bit). ✅
