Android Studio on Win 10, dev/kvm not found

[Advaitom]

I just installed Android Studio on my up-to-date Win 10 pc that has UEFI enabled. I got the error "dev/kvm not found". Do I need to disable secure boot to fix this error? Anyone know how to fix this without disabling secure boot? This error is preventing me from running the Android Virtual Device in Android Studio. Thanks,

Yes, you need to disable secure boot https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=206410

Hmmm... I was afraid of that. So another option is to install Virtual Box on my Win 10 pc. Then install Ubuntu or Mint in the Virtual Box. Then install Android Studio in the Linux distro. Any reason not to use the Win 10 / Virtual Box / Linux option to run Android Studio? I got a recent i5 with 8gb ram and an SSD hard drive. Thanks! (Yes, I could disable secure boot but I'm a little paranoid re security.)
