| [[Hypervisors|Built-in, self-contained or integrated virtualization engine]]<br /><small>Emulators that employ a self-contained hypervisor are a distinct class of virtualization solutions that integrate their own layer directly into the application package similar to [[Computer_specifications#Recommended_Specifications|static linking]]. Unlike emulators that rely on third-party or host operating system (OS) features (Microsoft Hyper-V/WHPX, KVM or Intel's HAXM), these solutions are designed to be functionally independent of the host OS's virtualization stack. On Windows, this is typically achieved for Android emulation by installing a proprietary, kernel-level driver that acts as a hypervisor to manage the virtual machine, bypassing the need for pre-existing host OS'es virtualization stack/feature. This shouldn't be confused with hardware-assisted virtualization (VT-x/AMD-V).</small> | | [[Hypervisors|Built-in, self-contained or integrated virtualization engine]]<br /><small>Emulators that employ a self-contained hypervisor are a distinct class of virtualization solutions that integrate their own layer directly into the application package similar to [[Computer_specifications#Recommended_Specifications|static linking]].
