In this article, Software Tips will guide you on how to fix 99% of Nox.
1. Hardware configuration
For a software to work smoothly, the hardware requirements on your computer must meet the requirements of the software. If the hardware configuration does not meet the lowest configuration level, it is difficult to experience it smoothly. To check the hardware configuration, you read this article!

If your hardware does not meet the minimum requirements to use NOX, then upgrade them to run smoother.
2. Check Open GL
According to the parameters from the NOX developer, it is required to use Open GL 2.0 or higher to work smoothly. As such, we need to check Open GL and update them if necessary.

If your device has Open GL lower than 2.0, please update the Driver of the Video Card! How to update is very simple, you go to the home page of the Card manufacturer and choose the driver version corresponding to the hardware device!

3. Set performance configuration for NOX
When NOX software is installed, the system will configure itself to suit your hardware. However, this is only a pre-installed so it will not be optimal by our own settings.
Step 1: You select the Settings Gear icon to open the settings, then you select the Perfomance Settings tab.
Step 2: Then, you select Performance Settings is High or Custom to set the maximum number of CPU cores available. Finally, select Save Settings to save the settings.
Please restart the NOX software to set it up again.
4. Format the drive
One point worth noting when we use NoxPlayer software is to use the NTFS drive format instead of FAT32. This problem is an error because FAT32 has a file size limit and NTFS has no file size limit. Another highlight of NTFS is its ability to automatically correct errors when there is a problem. Because of that, when we start NoxPlayer, the system will have no files / missing 99% error files.
To fix this problem, you just need to install Nox Player on the NTFS formatted drive.
5. Test with another Demo
How to test this you will proceed to create an additional emulator NoxPlayer simulator to test them to see if they work properly or not. If the Demo works smoothly without error, it means that your old NoxPlayer is having an error, please reinstall and remember to back up the data!
Step 1: You select the Expand icon on NoxPlayer and select MulDrive to see the virtual machines we are using.
Step 2: Then, you select Add Emulator to add the emulated version into NoxPlayer.
Step 3: Click Start to test the newly created simulator. If they do not report an error, it means that your old version is experiencing the error.
6. Reinstall NoxPlayer
NoxPlayer during installation on Windows also often generates many errors due to software or hardware incompatibilities. Please try reinstalling 1-2 times to make the system more stable. You should also note that the source of downloading the application, please download the application from the company's homepage instead of other posting sites because you are very susceptible to Virus.
