Android Studio freezes on startup - android

I searched all day but haven't find a solution yet.
Today I installed Android Studio without any problems.
I added the correct path.
JAVA_HOME to C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_20
and
JDK_HOME to C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_20
But, when I start the program it freezes on the loading screen. (The gray picture with the green android logo and text Android Studio)
It does create a process that I can't close, but after waiting for 20 minutes it's still on that screen.
I tried a clean install, also I tried the 32bit version without any success because it complained about the jvm that I could not fix for some reason.
I also did an update for it, but without success.
I have no idea what else I can try to fix this, but I also don't see myself going back to eclipse.

What worked for me was to disconnect my android phone which was connected to the computer(in the debugging mode).

I went from 1.5 to 2.0 and after updating it wouldn't load (hung at the startup screen). I had to delete the .android folder, the android.15 folder and the .AndroidStudioPreview2.0 folder under user. I also had to rename the SDK folder and after it started up I rename it back to what it was. Which means I had to add the path back to android studio. This was the only way I got it to work.

The same issue. "Run as administrator" helped me.

Another possible solution comes from JLund (from the comments):
I did this from the command line:
adb kill-server
adb start-server
and that unfroze Android Studio at startup for me.

Make sure there is no ANDROID_SDK_HOME, ANDROID_HOME or the like defined as you environment variable. You might need to uninstall any Android SDK previously installed manually after removing those environment variable.

My Android Studio auto loads the last worked-on project.
I cancelled the loading project before the IDE hung.
The Android Studio launcher comes up. Select the "Open an existing..." option.
Windows 10
Java 1.8.0_131
Android Studio 3.2.1

Android Studio kept getting hung up on a white screen before the IDE loaded any buttons. I renamed the project that it was trying to load, restarted Android Studio, and selected another project and it loaded correctly.

I had to revamp all manually installed 'HOME' environments and start it again-

Android Studio stuck on loading devices

I'm currently running Android Studio Bumblebee 2021.1.1 in windows 10.
The problem I have is each time I start android studio the device list is stuck in loading devices.
I tried these solutions
android studio device list stuck on loading/51101178
android device list showing in android studio got stuck/65177069
The soulutions provided in the threads sometimes work and sometimes don't but the real problem is even if I did fix it in the run time, The next time I open android studio it's still there.
I already tried updating android studio to latest version, reinstalling android studio, deleting all the caches and plugins and resetting it to default. Completely Deleting Sdk folder and downloading again. But nothing helped I don't know where this problem could be originate from
In my case deleting the "platform-tools" folder as Dyenal said didn't work because it said that the folder was open elsewhere (even when I had shut down android studio). If that's your case too, do this.
Close android studio
Go to your task manager
Go to the "Details" tab and look for "adb.exe" as seen in the image below.
Right-click on it and "End task".
Open android studio and pretend you weren't interrupted. Cheers :)
Go to SDK folder delete platform-tools folder.. invalidate and restart the studio..works for me!
After hours of research and try and error I finally figured out what was going on.
Turns out my adb configuration was conflicting with genymotion's. Nothing could have done at the side of android studio. I went to the genymotion settings ADB tab and changed from Use Genymotion Android Tools to Use custom Android SDK Tools and it went away at last
This is a temporary solution. Open terminal and type adb devices. Once your device starts showing up in terminal, it will start showing up in loading devices too.
This problem occurs due to Windows folder accessing especially when you change the AVD folder.
Windows prevent access to Windows partition root. you have multi options for solving this problem.
Move AVD folder to another driver. Then define it on the Environment variable
Move the AVD to C:\Users\<User>\.android\avd folder. this folder is accessible for Android studio.
Run emulator from device manager, then type adb devices in cmd prompt
Restarting my computer fixed the problem for me
When using Android Studio, or any other IDE which use their own ADB, it is necessary to set Genymotion to use the correct ADB instead of its inbuilt one. It is documented here: https://docs.genymotion.com/desktop/02_Application/#use-third-party-adbsdk
I only opened task manager and there were a bunch of adb.exe open so i ended all of them while android studio is running in the background so then adb.exe started again and then i go to android studio and find out that the issue was resolved.

Android Studio hangs on "Tip of the Day"

When I start up Android studio, it opens "Tip of the Day", which I cannot close although I can click the X (not the close button though). It says 'Gradle sync started' at the bottom, which never goes away. I attached a screenshot.
I am on MacOs Big Sur and resolved the issue by going to System preferences >> General >> Prefer tabs "never" when opening documents.
I just ran into Android Studio hanging as it started. On the Mac, I was able to resolve the issue by deleting the options file specifying the JDK Studio should use. In my case that file was removed as follows:
rm ~/Library/Preferences/AndroidStudioPreview3.3/studio.jdk
It seems that Android Studio hangs if the specified SDK is too new. Removing the file lets it fall back to its own included JDK.
To solve the problem permanently :-
defaults write com.google.android.studio AppleWindowTabbingMode manual
Run the above syntax in terminal. Then quit the Android Studio and Restart it.
It solved the issue for me.
Freeze was caused by a plugin in the background not working properly (Team Foundation Server Version Control Integration).

"The following SDK components were not installed: sys-img-x86-addon-google_apis-google-22 and addon-google_apis-google-22"

I'm Windows 7 64-bit user and I got Android Studio problem after I update the latest version of Android Studio and SDK components..
The following SDK components were not installed: sys-img-x86-addon-google_apis-google-22 and addon-google_apis-google-22
Please help me to resolve this problem. Thank you.
I had the same issue when trying to upgrade Android Studio from 1.1 to 1.2 on Mac OS 10.10.
I solved the problem by selecting custom installation instead of standard. Also we need to select the Android SDK Platform (Lollipop 5.1).
Choose the new UI Design >> next
Just try to cancel the "Downloading Components" from upper right
corner 'X' button.
A dialog box will appear then click OK (wait a bit for first time
launch)
I uninstall Only Android studio (keep the SDK and Emulator) and then reinstall it just android studio. took me 2 minutes and my android studio work again.
I had this same problem, but I'm a Linux user.
I resolved the problem by reattempting the installation with adminstrator privileges. [For those Linux users reading this, I ran studio.sh with sudo.]
I just click 'Retry' and it's ok! Also run on Win7 64-bit.
TRY BELOW SOLUTIONS.
SOLUTION 1:
-> Run Android Studio as Administrator (this is only required for first run or when any issues arise due to automatic updates on any run in future).
Though it shows API 23 is or any other updates are not installed (and wouldn't show any 'Retry' button), BUT still the download and installation of rest of the updates would proceed (you can see the download progress incrementing even after seeing the above errors). So, DO NOT ABORT the operation.
-> At the end of installation (after rest of successful updates are installed) it would this time display the "Retry" button to retry installation for API 23 or any other versions which had failed earlier. Then click the "Retry" button, it would work this time.
This would resolve your issue with successful installation.
-> Next time onward no need to run Android studio as Administrator, unless it does any automatic updates and shows similar issues.
SOLUTION 2:
-> Alternative approach is to install any updates (which ever failed in earlier attempt) from Android SDK Manager first and then later launch Android Studio (which would not need any check for updates and any additional installations).
To install any features or updates, run Android SDK manager as administrator (run as administrator is not mandatory for this but preferred to avoid any permissions related issues) and check the required options and proceed with the installation without any issues.
SOLUTION 3:
-> If still your issue is not resolved, then try the proxy solution as suggested by others or check your internet connectivity if it's working properly or not.
*Any of the above solutions should resolve your issues.
go to c->users->[Your user account]-> remove android 1.2 and restart the android studio
when it ask to import select first radio button which is import setting from previous config
there you go fixed
I am using Windows 7 Professional and I was having same problem #Bayu Mohammad Lufty not worked for me.
I simply delete .AndroidStudio1.2 from my C:\Users\UserName\ and restart my Android studio again.
It open Android Studio perfectly!
It configured everything again in next start :)
I'm a MacOS user.
I solved it by uninstalling Android Studio and reinstalling it again.
If you want to try this link helped me a lot.
Uninstall Android Studio MacOS (terminal)
When you are installing Android Studio, under Install type do not use standard setting, use custom setting instead, and check all the option boxes in the next step.
i have solve my same problem
i update my android studio, and i choose not to import my setting from my previous version than that problem appear.
than i realize that i have 2 AndroidStudio folder on my windows account (.AndroidStudio and .AndroidStudio1.2) and on my new .AndroidStudio1.2 folder there are no other.xml file.
than i copy other.xml file from C:\Users\my windows account name.AndroidStudio\config\options to C:\Users\my windows account name.AndroidStudio1.2\config\options
and that how i solve my problem.
I'm using UBUNTU and I got this same error. I restarted the set up using sudo and did a custom install. This solved my problem!
--More Specific--
re-installed using # sudo ./studio.sh
then I made sure to click "Custom Install"
then I made sure all packages were selected.
And I got this message Android virtual device Nexus_5_API_22_x86 was successfully created
I just run:
C:\Users[Username]\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\SDK Manager.exe
Install SDK Platform Android M Preview
And run Android Studio again.
It's working for me :D
When this error occured I first clicked retry for few times and waited for 2 minutes and clicked 'retry' then it installed without any error.(for 2 minutes I was searching to solve this problem online).
I was getting an "out of space" error, which left me scratching my head as I had plenty of disk space, until I realized that it ran out of space on /tmp, which on Arch Linux is mounted on a tmpfs with a size limit.

Android Studio Update stuck cleaning up?

I just downloaded and installed Android Studio 0.8. When I ran it, I received a notice that there was an update. I immediately downloaded the patch and it auto-ran. After patching, the dialog titled "Update" appears to be stuck with the following prompt:
Updating Android Studio (build 135.1245622) to Android Studio
(build.135.1248636)
(progress bar animation)
Cleaning Up
If I click on the Cancel button, I get a new Yes/No dialog box saying:
The patch has not been applied yet.
Are you sure you want to abort the operation?
How can I fix this problem?
Running on Windows 8.1
JDK version 1.8.0_05
I've also experienced this with the latest updates (0.8.1 - 0.8.4), both in Windows 7 and Windows 8.1, but there's actually nothing wrong.
The "Cleaning Up" part takes an amazingly long time (literally, several minutes), but it finishes OK. You just need to wait. :)
Very surprising for what would seem to be such a small update (at least judging from the downloaded file size).
It took an hour for the "cleaning up..." step to finish on my Windows 8 machine. For whoever still has this problem, I don't know if it's a coincidence, but it finished 1 minute after I closed all my other open applications (e.g. browser).
I had the same issue while updating to version 0.8.2
The update froze at the 'cleaning up' screen. It was very late, so I let it run while I watched tv and fell asleep. Next morning I started my computer and the update screen was still there :O So I found this forum and did everything you guys said, but nothing seemed to work for me. I cancelled the update and got a Java IOException. It said that the update couldn't delete files and or folders inside the Temp folder of the LocalAppdata dir (C:\Users[UserName]\AppData\Local\Temp). I logged out and logged in again and started Android Studio. Everything ran fine and the update was succesfully applied.
So if someone experiences this too and the update freezes for longer than 1 hour, you can try to abort it, log out and log in again. And maybe it works again.
I believe this is to do with this, but I could be wrong:
On some Windows systems, the launcher script does not find where Java is installed. If you encounter this problem, you need to set an environment variable indicating the correct location.
Select Start menu > Computer > System Properties > Advanced System Properties. Then open Advanced tab > Environment Variables and add a new system variable JAVA_HOME that points to your JDK folder, for example C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_21.
The problem has occurred for me for the last few updates, including the update to 0.8.4.
I'm on Windows 8.1 pro 64 bit.
I kill the cleanup window after a few minutes using Task Manager. I restart Android Studio, everything works as usual, and I can see the new update version number in Help > About (0.8.4 in this case).
This is listed in the Android Open Source Project - Issue Tracker - Updater from 0.8.1 hung on Cleaning Up
This issue is now fixed for me going from 0.8.4 to 0.8.5, as detailed at Issue 73989: Patch updating Studio fails on Windows because it cannot delete files
Note specifically that I attempted to delete all files in C:\Users****\AppData\Local\Temp\ manually.
I couldn't delete
"C:\Users****\AppData\Local\Temp\idea.updater.2226438342747264268.tmp\temp.4196595786233368387.tmp\lib\openapi.jar"
... until I restarted Windows.
So some mysterious lock on a file like that might be reproducing the problem for others.

Android studio isn't opening on Windows

I just downloaded and installed Android Studio. For whatever reason, it won't open. I've tried running it as administrator, but that doesn't seem to work either. I've also tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but I'm still having this same problem.
On windows open task manager and check if android studio is there.
End the task and start the app again it works like a charm
Figured it out! I'm sure someone will run into this in the future, so here goes.
Even though it found my JDK during installation, it wasn't able to find it when I was trying to open it, for some reason. Simple fix. Add a JDK_HOME environment variable to your system variables. It should contain the path to your JDK's ROOT directory. i.e. c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_21\
For me this technique works
Hover on icon, then hover on app
Press right click and select maximize
This link http://tools.android.com/knownissues lists another cause for the launcher malfunctioning.
I quote the link here:
"
On some systems the launcher script does not find where Java is installed. Workaround is to set a variable indicating the location of Java [b/55281]:
Open Start menu > computer > System Properties > Advanced System Properties
In the Advanced tab > Environment Variables, add new system variable JAVA_HOME that points to your JDK folder, for example C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_21.
Another issue we found is that the launcher script uses an option that is unknown to Java on some system [b/55267]
Open the installation folder of Android Studio (e.g. C:\Programs Files\Android\android-studio, or C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Android\android-studio) and find the "bin" directory in there.
Open a "cmd.exe" (command prompt), cd to the android-studio\bin folder and run "studio.bat". You will most likely see an error: for example b/55267 is about the option -XX:+UseCodeCacheFlushing not being recognized. Report the error, remove the line from the studio.exe.vmoptions or studio64.exe.vmoptions and it should now work.
Apologies for this weak launcher."
OS: Windows 10 64bit
Need to delete below folder and try launch Android Studio again.
C:\Users\your_user_name\AppData\Roaming\Google\AndroidStudio4.1
Source: developer android
I am Installing Android Studio 4.1.1 in my Windows 10 and trying to open as normal as well run as administration both ways but did not open as regular.
When I saw in Task Manager then it was run as a background process then simply I was Endtask it in that background process and re-open. It works for me...!!!
Just add a JDK_HOME variable with the path of your JDK as value and start the IDE again. That's the only thing to do, hope this closes the other questions.
Windows 7 user:
I tried all the above ideas ( adding JDK_HOME, JAVA_HOME environment variables), but the final trick was to run as admin.
If that fails, try "where java" in cmd.exe.
If it lists c:\system32\java.exe first, then rename the file.
(i) Open the folder where android-studio is installed. (C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-studio)
(ii)- Right click on the android-studio folder and scroll to properties.
(iii)While in Properties window, click on Security.
(iv)Click the Edit Button
(v) Select User/Admin...or others
(vi)Check "Allow" in front of "Full control"
(vii) Either Apply or Press OK
....At this point you have to wait for it to install....Enjoy!!!
And I use Window 8...!!! So same thing applies to Window 7...wonder why the security on it...
I am on Windows 8 64 bit machine.
I already had JDK installed and jdk.1.7.0 folder was present in C:\Program Files\Java. But path for that folder didn't work. You must have jdk.1.7.xxx folder present on your machine and give that folder as JDK_HOME in Environment variable.
You can take latest JDK version from here
Make sure to choose Windows x64 version. Install JDK and then set your path. For those who are not sure how to set path in Windows 8, I have got following screenshots.
Go to bottom right corner. Click on Settings. Click on PC Info.
Click on Advanced System Setting link on left side.
Click on Environment Variables button. A Winodw will open with 2 listboxes. Click on New button below System variables listbox. New Window will pop up. Provide name as JDK_HOME and path as your path like "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_55". No need to take bin folder into the path.
None of the above mentioned solution worked for me. And there is no studio.bat file in bin directory.
So, I downloaded a 32-bit android-studio for my system (as it is 32bit) from here (official website) and it worked!
PS: The link might be broken in the future, just google for the 32 bit android studio.
(After wasting half a day on it, finally, I got it running)
I am running it on Windows 8.1. Also, I had JDK 1.7.0_13.
I tried the following:
Open Start menu > Computer > System Properties > Advanced System Properties In the Advanced tab > Environment Variables
Add new system variable JAVA_HOME that points to JDK folder, C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_13\
Just to be on the safer side, also add new system variable JDK_HOME that points to JDK folder, for example, C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_13\
Append new PATH in system variable that points to JDK folder, C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_13\
But still it didn't work. Then it struck me that might be, my Java version is old. I downloaded the latest version from here.
I uninstalled JDK 1.7.0_13 and installed version 8 i.e. JDK 1.8.0_131.
Now do all the above steps but, replace the path with C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_131\ OR whichever your latest version is.
Success!! Now it works.
In my case, I have existing projects and during trying the opening Android Studio, it just showed me the name of the project.
The thing I did was changing the name of that project and forcing Android Studio to ask me to choose which project at the beginning.
In my case, it was a windows related bug. Android Studio was configured properly and working like a charm, but it was opening in the second disconnected windows.
My solution was to press [Win] + Tab and then choose Android Studio on half of the screen so that it readjusts. Finally, I maximized it and it opened it in the correct screen.
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
In my case executing these in the command line worked after ending the Android Studio process in the task manager:
net stop winnat
net start winnat
Check the log file in :
C:\Users\<yourid>\.AndroidStudio<version>\system\log\idea.log
It might give you some clue.
You don't have to reinstall the Android Studio. In my case, I just deleted "C:\Users\User.AndroidStudio3.5" folder. Then Android Studio is opened. The folder contains just personel settings such as your ide theme darcula etc.
I invalidated cache and restartI deleted the Android studio version folder which was C:\Users\User.AndroidStudio3.5 for me and it worked like charm.
What worked for me was simply rebooting the computer. I'm certain that logging off and logging in will work to so the environment variables can refresh on profile level after installation.
Change the JAVA_HOME system environment variable to C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\jre
The direct path to installed java may not work sometimes due to version conflict.
I had Android studio crash on my machine crying about ram. Then it just wouldn't start again. Restarting th ecomputer wouldn't help and I know it has nothing to do with Java.
What ended up fixing it was runing Android Studio trough the Start Menu, or the instalation folder and not the pinned icon ...
Make sure you are not using two Languages (Hindi + English) as input method because android studio install required some time stamp and suppose you are using Hindi language that time and letters will not match at the time of opening
Solution is - select primary Language as English while installing Android Studio.
To change steps
press Windows
search word language
remove Hindi Language
then install Android Studio
I edited studio.bat file.
I added actual jdk placement to SET JDK= line at the beginning of file:
SET JDK=C:\\\Program Files\\\Java\\\jdk1.8.0_151
You must upgrade to 4.0.1 version!
The same problem happened with me. Actually my C drive wasn't full still I wanted to install android studio in D drive. The problem was resolved when I deleted it and again installed android studio.
Install it in C drive (You don't have to do anything for that. Actually, just click next...next.. next.. while installing and you are done.
)
Zuhair Naqi's solution is good, but in my case I don't have the option to maximize. So I found another method, because in my case the Android Studio (Bumblebee) does not open every time the windows was updated.
Select right click on the android studio icon, and open some recent project.
A new window will open with the recent project correctly.
You close the window that you couldn't see, and from there you can open projects normally.
I was able to solve it by going to control panel and uninstalling android studio, then restarting the computer so that any running instances would close. Next I deleted the folder
C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio
Re-installed everything, and everything was working fine.
