How should I configure my Antivirus software?

• Disable Hyper-V and other hypervisors

BlueStacks uses Virtualization technology and when other hypervisors like Hyper-V, VirtualBox or Vmware are running, it may impair our ability to run optimally. Try disabling other software that may be using the Virtualization technology. Please click on the below link to know more about Hyper-V.

How to disable other Hypervisors?

• Adjust Power Plan

Adjust your power plan settings to High Performance to speed up BlueStacks.

How to change power plan?

• Upgrade your computer

Upgrading to a computer with more RAM and faster CPU (with hardware-assisted virtualization) can boost BlueStacks performance significantly. A large, crisp display with a good trackpad or mouse can also significantly improve the experience.
