from a week I was updated my Android Studio version to stable version 4.0.0 then I am started getting this errors in my studio and unable to build the app.
Unable to save plugin settings: The plugin org.jetbrains.android failed to save settings and has been disabled. Please restart Android Studio
But I forcefully enabled all plugins in my Studio by going to File-->Settings-->Plugins --> All are enabled.
Select Embedded JDK in Android Studio
Try that:
delete the .idea folder in the android project folder where you faced this problem.
Close Android Studio. Now navigate to your projects .idea folder and rename the workspace.xml file to workspace-o.xml and delete a workspace.xml~ if it exists (i.e., AS has a corrupt workspace layout file).
This should fix the problem. Restart AS and configure the workspace back they way you like it (i.e., it will start with a simple view: View/Tools Windows/Project etc.).
I started my first project in Android Studio and my answer may not be the correct one. I ran into this problem during building the My Activity project. It always came back with this error asking me to restart. Finally I thought that the controlled folder file access is preventing me. I temporarily switched-off the protection(against Ransomware in Windows 10) and tried the Build. I stopped getting these messages. But, I have other problems I am looking into.
I deleted the .idea folder and then I invalidated the cache (file-> invalidate Cache/Restart)
This fixed my issue.

Android studio isn't opening on Windows
(28 answers)
Closed 1 year ago.
After I close out the Android Studio tab, I am not able to open it again. I am not able to open Android Studio until I uninstall and reinstall the software. Every once in a while, the screen will go gray and I am forced to reinstall again.
I have tried right clicking and selecting 'open', but it doesn't do anything.
I expected Android Studio to open after clicking on it, but it is as though I never installed it at all. It only works until I close the tab.
Update:
I went into my files and clicked on one called 'Studio'. It gave me an error titled Error launching Studio. Here is what it said:
Failed to load JVM DLL C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio1\jre\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll
If you already have a 32-bit JDK installed, define a JAVA_HOME variable in Computer
> System Properties > System Settings > Environment Variables.
Remove the cache files from user-> appdata-> android studio
On Windows: %USER_HOME%.gradle/caches/
Use your uninstaller to remove all the cache, registry, files, temp then restart install new version of android studio to different location.
I was having a problem with Android Studio a few weeks ago when my antivirus was removing a file needed to launch the app on my device.
I had to re-add the library file that it would keep removing before I caught that it was proudly telling me that it was removing that file to quarantine.
Long story short check that your antivirus is not removing the file.
I was able to resolve the same issue by refer to the solution provided in Android Developer Portal,
Studio doesn't start after upgrade
If Studio doesn't start after an upgrade, the problem may be due to an invalid Android Studio configuration imported from a previous version of Android Studio or an incompatible plugin. As a workaround, try deleting (or renaming, for backup purposes) the directory below, depending on the Android Studio version and operating system, and start Android Studio again. This will reset Android Studio to its default state, with all third-party plugins removed.
For Android Studio 4.1 and later:
Windows: %APPDATA%\Google\AndroidStudio
Example: C:\Users\your_user_name\AppData\Roaming\Google\AndroidStudio4.1
macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Google/AndroidStudio
Example: ~/Library/Application Support/Google/AndroidStudio4.1
Linux: ~/.config/Google/AndroidStudio and ~/.local/share/Google/AndroidStudio
Example: ~/.config/Google/AndroidStudio4.1 and ~/.local/share/Google/AndroidStudio4.1
I bought a new laptop and tried to install Android Studio, but It doesn't start.
I set the right path of "JDK_HOME" and "JAVA_Home" in the environment cariables.
Checked if the Java.exe doesn't exist in C:\Windows\System32
When trying to start Android Studio it shows the process in the Task Manager and disappears instantly.
My JDK Version is 1.8.0_121.
You don't need JDK_HOME and JAVA_HOME
delete one of them should solve your problem. android studio might got duplicated configuration.
If problem remains remove android studio and reinstall it.
After installing the Android studio and launching it I am getting this error.
I cannot specify the path to the SDK. I have tried giving the path as :C:\Development\Android\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools\" but the path is invalid
Try this:
close this box then
Tools -> Android -> SDK Manager
I encountered this problem when installing Android Studio 3.0.
There was in fact no folder named C:\Users\Your Name\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk after I installed Android Studio. I tried installing the Android command line tools at this location, but android studio did not accept this. (Turns out, the command line tools are not the SDK.)
Managed to fix it by doing a complete uninstall of Android Studio, deleting the C:\Users\Your Name\AppData\Local\Android folder, deleting any Android Studio settings folders (in my case C:\Users\Your Name\.AndroidStudio2.3 and C:\Users\Your Name\.AndroidStudio2.3). After reinstalling and opening Android Studio, it gave me a dialog to download the SDK.
I can think of 2 possible explanations why this worked for me:
Originally, Android Studio was opening a project straight away, which didn't trigger the "download your sdk" dialog. (This no longer occurred since I deleted my Android Studio settings.)
There was some kind of setting that made Android Studio think I already had the SDK downloaded.
Try this - C:\Users\Your Name\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk
Replace Your Name with the name of your PC.
This problem is usual after you update, or reinstall the Android Studio.. Follow these steps-
* Close all the opened project which is opened by default after you started the Android Studio.. and again open the Android Studio, it will direct you towards re-downloading of SDK components from the net (So be sure to have net connectivity at this point)..
* If above step doesn't work, then restart the PC and open Android Studio again..
Hope it will help..
C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk
Hope this will work.
I was also stuck with this...i tried everything mentioned above, but could not get through.
Then I was about to uninstall and reinstall the IDE as mentioned above.
When I was about to uninstall, to my surprise, I found Android SDK Tools in control Panel -> Programs and Features, which was the thing I was looking for!
Android SDK Tools in Control Panel -> Programs and features
I didn't know how to find the path of that, because even after searching in my computer, I didn't get it. So, I went on further and clicked on uninstall.
There, I found the path of Android SDK Tools "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\". I did not uninstall anything.
I linked this path in the dialogue box, the error was gone!
Whoever encounters the same error, should look for the "Android SDK Tools" in the programs and features in control panel, and then go for uninstalling the same.
There you will find the path of the tools folder.
Copy and paste that path, and you shall get through.
When installing Android Studio on my Mac I accidentally cancelled the dialog box that would normally have installed the SDK. To fix this I deleted Android Studio from /Applications, and deleted the following folders:
% cd $HOME
% rm -rf Preferences/AndroidStudio3.4
% rm -rf Logs/AndroidStudio3.4
% rm -rf Caches/AndroidStudio3.4
% rm -rf Application\ Support/AndroidStudio3.4
(Adjust the version number for your version.) I then reinstalled Android Studio and let it guide me through the SDK installation process.
In case anyone get to experience the same weird situation as me:
I had installed Android Studio, had projects saved, but for some reason I had to do reinstall Windows (and during that I deleted my "Android-folder" in ".../local". When you do that, you will encounter the exact same pop up.
No worries, close it and even though it says that it is needed, it's not. You just don't have access to the prior projects. When saving the new one, then everything will be OK.
The problem was solved by downloading the SDK again, in my case I had deleted the SDK folder that was in C:\Users\george\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk, because I deleted it then I had to download the SDK
I just reinstalled Android Studio (everything) C:/user/yourName/.androidStudio.4 and C:/user/yourName/.androidStudio.4.
You dont have to delete your projects folder!
In my case, going to the Settings menu in Android Studio, there I could download the SDK (none were installed) through the "edit" button
I got this error when moving a project from one computer to antother, even though it wasn't an Android project and didn't need an Android SDK.
The solution for me was to open the file local.properties and remove the line that says sdk.dir. Hope this can help someone.
All you need to do is close the project opened in android studio. This error occurs when you reinstall Android Studio. The previous project that you have been working on will be opened by default. Select that folder from file explorer and move into different location and then again launch Android Studio. The SDK installation will begin thereafter.
The Reason that why Android Studio can't install/find SDK automatically:
As I tried many times for reinstalling Android Studio, but each time I faced with this SDK popup. I figured out that after installing, Android Studio seeks for project folder automatically (usually located in C:\Users\Username\AppData\AndroidStudioProject) to syn previous settings, gradle, SDK path, Android Studio Settings etc. When I deleted this folder (if you need your previous projects copy it somewhere for latter replacement) the usual installation has been started after clicking on install.
I just encountered this issue when updating my Android Studio after a couple of years of not using it, and the solution ended up very easy:
I exited the window with the SDK prompt and closed the old project it was trying to open. Once the project was closed, the IDE was able to prompt me with the download window, and there SDK download worked!
I'm completely new to android studio. Installed it plus all the skd packages the installation guide told me to. I've been trying a couple of things for the past two weeks now with no success. Can someone direct me to a solution or where more detailed error messages are found?
Im receiving this error message from the "Messages Gradle Sync" Panel:
"Error:(1, 0) Cause: com.google.common.collect.Sets"
edit : I have ubuntu installed on this computer aswell and I decided to install android studio on it. Its woking there so I guess I'll work from it until studio gets a fix or I find one.
Uncheck "Offline work" in File>Settings>Gradle>Global Gradle Settings
Resync the project, for example by restarting the Android Studio.
Once synced, you can check the option again to work offline
Update java if Android L SDK installed
-File -> Invalidate caches / Restart
-Shutdown Android Studio
-Rename/remove .gradle folder in the user home directory
-Restart Android Studio let it download all the Gradle stuff it needs
-Gradle build success !
Open your project where its located
For example:
MyApplication->gradle->wrapper->gradle-wrapper.properties
go into it and change this row:
distributionUrl=http\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-1.12-all.zip
with this:
distributionUrl=http\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-1.10-all.zip
and try to sync with this button in your IDE
At https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=71725 I found this answer by (#3 alinmit...#gmail.com) and it solved that problem for me.
In Android Studio go to File>Settings>Gradle>Global Gradle Settings and in Gradle VM options specify the proxy details:
-Dhttp.proxyHost=dummyHost -Dhttp.proxyPort=dummyPort -Dhttp.proxyUser=dummyUser -Dhttp.proxyPassword=dummyPassword
I have Avast antivirus, i closed it and then the problem disappeared! try to disable your firewall and let us know! :-)
