HAXM on OS X keeps on disappearing

问题

I have recently moved my android development environment on OS X, using El Capitan. Everything is working as expected. The only problem i find is that after every time I restart my PC the HAXM gets disappeared from '/dev' and Android Studio Reports it while starting an emulator using the HAXM.

When I go to extras in Android SDK folder and try to install, it says that the same is already installed and if continue, it will be reinstalled. I continue to install. After which every thing works fine, till next reboot of the system.

Can anyone please tell me, how to resolve the issue. It is not a big task to reinstall HAXM, but it is really annoying.

Figured this one out: when upgrading from HAXM 1.1.4 to 1.1.5 on El Capitan, the installation path moves from /System/Library to /Library. However, the in-place upgrade script shipped by the HAXM installer doesn't handle this perfectly, which leaves things in a funky state. It is for this reason that the HAXM page says:

Before installing HAXM 1.1.5, the previous version (1.1.4 and below) must be uninstalled using:

sudo /System/Library/Extensions/intelhaxm.kext/Contents/Resources/uninstall.sh

If your installation is already broken because you didn't uninstall 1.1.4 before installing 1.1.5, the following steps worked for me:

• Uninstall 1.1.5 from its new path by running /Library/Extensions/intelhaxm.kext/Contents/Resources/uninstall.sh with sudo
• Remove left-over 1.1.4 files (specifically for me the key was to remove /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.intel.haxm.plist although there may be more files left over in /System/Library for other people)
• Reinstall 1.1.5 the normal way
