Answer 1

Update

You need to update Android Emulator and HAXM,

• Go to Tools > SDK Manager
• Update Android Emulator and HAXM installer

Answer 2

As per the comment of @user4938227 (and my experience) it seems like it's a one time warning the should happen at the first run of the emulator. Avd creates the file and on the following runs it shouldn't appear.
