Hi guys I'm having troubles to find the file explorer in the new version and there is no perspective like in eclipse.
File Explorer in Android Studio is from a previous version of Android Studio
Thanks and regards.
this is the Android Device Monitor in Android Studio and the file explorer tab should be there but is not.
Perhaps you accidentally closed it. I just ran the Android Device Monitor, from Android Studio 1.1, and the File Explorer tab appears as normal. However, as with the other tabs, it has an "x" in the tab to close it, and if you do that, it will no longer show up.
To make it appear again, choose Window > Show View from the Android Device Monitor main menu, and choose Android > File Explorer in the tree of available views. Click OK, and the tab should reappear.

When I start the emulator in Android Studio, it opens as a tab. I want to open it in a seperate window.
Additionally, my Visual Studio Code doesn't see this emulator.
Also, Android Studio, (and VSCode as well) doesn't see the emulator too. It isn't listed in select device.
I didn't use to have these kind of errors. I needed to delete Android Studio. I reinstalled it and things changed.
To resolve the issue, go to: File > settings > tools > emulator.
After that, untick "launch in a tool window" option.
Note:
Restart the program if you couldn't launch the emulator if instead you get a message that it's already launched.
With the new update it's possible to open the emulator as a new window clicking on settings icon -> view mode, there you can choose what's the best for you, maybe it can help.
I'm having a problem with my Android Studio. This is the first time that I installed Android Studio. The problem is that when I install any device it comes up with a grey background around the device or the emulator, I don't know if it has any thing to do with the latest Android Studio version, cause I have updated it, and the toolbar is at the top of the emulator instead of being at the top right of the device.
The first picture is how I want it to be, and the second picture is what appears when I open Android Studio and run my app on the device (emulator).
In the second picture you have the emulator floated or windowed:
In order to get the emulator in a "separate" window go to Preferences -> Tools -> Emulator and uncheck Launch in a tool window:
Here is the documentation.
Here is how to open the Android Studion Emulator in a separate window.
Open Settings from File -> Settings...
Select Tools -> Emulator and uncheck Launch in a tool window
There is a better idea to open as it opens in an older version of Android Studio.
If you open any project then close it. Open Virtual Device Manager.
It will look like this image
If you run it before opening any project then you will get a separate window emulator as it looks earlier. It will behave like a separate application. If you close the Android studio also it will remain open. You can close it manually.
I am trying to run a project created by a colleague, so he zipped up the file and I downloaded it on my computer. I already viewed this link about the issue, however the reported solutions workn't for me. Here is a screenshot regarding my settings for SDK Tools, SDK Platforms and the dropdown menu in question. I have tried turning it on and off again.
Now android studio doesn't support the android tab anymore. You will have to set your requirements from project settings and set emulator using AVD manager. Below attached image will help you navigate through those steps:
Guys at JetBrains must love to hide the most common tools. Why can't the Android Studio be at least as good as the old eclipse plugin.
Just where on Earth did the file explorer window go?
I've already read:
File Explorer in Android Studio
How to get to the file explorer in android studio
But this is all I can get:
Where is the file explorer tab supposed to be found? When I clicked the Android Device Monitor button it said it was already shown. But now it gives me a "Failed to create the Java VM" error that disconnects the device, and a few seconds later it reconnects again.
Using Android Studio v1.1.0
Solved thanks to #Lipi's answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/25159856.
The .ini file was trying to give the monitor too much memory, and reducing it solved the issue. That file is in the Android SDK folder, it's not inside AS.
Android Studio does not currently show the file explorer as a tab in the IDE, it just uses the SDK's and opens it in a separate window.
Okay I don't know how to get to the file explorer in android studio. I already tried searching stack overflow and I found the same question I am asking but the solution there didn't work. So with screen shots could someone tell me how to get to the file explorer?
For Android Studio 0.8.6, go to Tools > Android > Android Device Monitor in the main menu, to bring up the Android Device Monitor in a separate window. There you will find what amounts a set of Eclipse perspectives, notably the DDMS perspective, which has the File Explorer view.
From the main menu go to:
Tools > Android > Android Device Monitor
then from the Android Device Monitor´s menu:
Window > Show View > choose: File Explorer
