How do I fix NoxPlayer lag on PC?
1. Reinstall NOX
If, after trying all possible fixes, you are still unable to fix NOX emulator lag, the ultimate solution would be to reinstall the program. By reinstalling the Android emulator, you get a fresh (bug-free) app, which should now work perfectly, provided all system requirements have been met.
2. Enable Virtual Technology (VT) on your System
Virtual Technology (VT) comes inbuilt with most standard computers. However, most times, the VT function is usually disabled, in which case, you are bound to experience some lags while running the NoxPlayer.
To resolve this issue, all you need to do is to enable the VT setting on your system, and you’ll experience a significant boost in the running speed..
The procedure for running BIOS varies across platforms. Hence, depending on your system’s build, the procedure outlined herein might not work for you.
Follow the steps below to run BIOS on your system:
Note: For Win 8 and Win 10 users, make sure you disable the Hyper-V feature on yourPC, before enabling the VT function.
Enabling VT on yourPCshould fix NoxPlayer lag issues, and you can now enjoy optimized Android experience on yourPC, via NoxPlayer.
If this doesn’t work, you can try the nexttroubleshootingfix.
3. Reconfigure the RAM and CPU allocated to NoxPlayer
NoxPlayer should be working at optimum capacity now.
This procedure works in sync with the virtual technology function; hence, if your system does not support VT, you can’t fix NoxPlayerlag using this procedure.
If you are still experiencing lags, you can change the graphics rendering mode (under Advanced settings).
Note:In trying to improve NOXperformancevia CPU and RAM customization, ensure to leave sufficient CPU and RAM space for the computer to run other system operations. Failure to do this might result in an eventual system crash.
4. Enhance graphics card performance
For NVIDIA:
Like mostemulators, NoxPlayer requires a standard graphics setup to function properly. So, if you are experiencing lags, the problem could be from your system graphics cards (or GPU setup).
The ultimate solution in this case, is to increase theperformanceof your system’s GPU, specifically the graphics cards. Although there is a number of ways to do this, we’ll be showing you the standard ones in this section.
This would jack-up the graphics cardperformance
However, if you want to set the graphics card to higherperformanceon the only NoxPlayer, you can customize the setting as follows:
For AMD:
Note:This process requires two sets of graphics cards. Hence, you need to check if you have two graphics cards on your system.
Alternatively, you can update your graphics card drivers by usingdriver updater software.
5. Clear NoxPlayer’s Cache
More often than not, NoxPlayer would be running slow after heavy usage. And most times, all you need to do to fix the error is to CLEAR theemulator‘s cache (like in Android phone).
NoxPlayer is one of the most prominent Androidemulatorsin the market. And it is designed to run at optimum capacity, in sync, with a hostPC. Hence, in the event ofperformancereduction or lag, the primary problem is usually caused by the host computer.
