Android Emulator closed because of an internal error: GPU Found

I haven't been on Android Studios in a number of days. When I went back on my emulator kept getting killed. I deleted all my emulators and the AVD manager folder in .android. After selecting that the emulator graphics be Software GLES 2.0 the emulator works and can run the application but it is very, very slow. Only a week ago the emualtor and Android Studios worked great.
I am receiving this error messaging now after re-installing an emulator with API level 28 (Pie):

Answer that work [28. July 2021]
First of all update your graphic card with the latest driver. (Graphic Card Model can be checked through your Device Manager)
Type in your explorer the following path, where <pc_name> need to be replaced with your individual name:
C:\Users<pc_name>.android
In the above mentioned directory we will put a .ini file that I prepared and is ready to download here. This file will disable your Vulkan driver and enable your GLDirect driver that your AVDs don't lag anymore. (watch image below)
Start your AVD and you will be able to use it without any troubles.

There is a missing or corrupted file amdvlk64.dll.I fixed this by given steps.
Download amdvlk64.dll from This Link , this is for 64 bit OS, you can search fro 32 bit also.
After Download, extract the folder on your desktop.
Open Extracted folder and Copy the amdvlk64.dll file.
Now Paste this file in C:\Windows\System32
Again run the emulator, hopefully it will run.

In my case I resolved this by performing the pending SDK Tools updates in the SDK Manager.

I get this error (Emulator is closed because of internal error: gpu found)
suddenly while I am running my code. So how I solve the problem is,
Go to AVD Manager or (Virtual Device Manager).
Edit your AVD or (Virtual Device Manager).
Select 'Software GLES2.0' option on Emulated Performance.
Click Finish.
Start AVD again

Download and install this vulkan-dll driver.
There are those who think that the comment I added is a virus, I researched the subject a lot and finally reached the address, almost 48 hours later, so I installed my emulator, my aim is just to help.

For me, the same error showed even though I have NVIDIA GPU.
Restarting the system after the NVIDIA driver update fixed the problem.

I installed Android studio in Windows 10(AMD Ryzen), the following one helped me to run the emulator smoothly. Once you installed Virtual device from AVD manager successfully, then your emulator will popup the above error like Android emulator closed....amdvlk64.dll not found and amdvlk32.dll not found.... when you try to run your code. Just follow this steps to avoid those error, hope it works:
Close your Android studio and also emulator error popup. Go to
Control Panel.
Select Programs --> Programs and Features --> Turn windows feature
on or off (which lies in the extreme right side of the screen).
A popup appears, in that check the Windows Hypervisor Platform and
Virtual Machine Platform, then click Ok.
It ask you to restart your system, allow to restart.
After restart, now open Android studio and run your emulator, hope it will
run smoothly.

At times the error might be caused by the wrong system date/time set on your computer. Try updating the system date/time and restart the android emulator. In my case it was caused by the wrong system date/time.

gpu driver issue flutter / android studio

I was wondering if there is any other way to run the AVD ? im trying to run in with android studio ( to start some flutter course) but i cant open it at all i was having some HAXM problems first but seems to be fixed ... now when i press the .> icon in AVD manager from android studio i get this GPU driver issue .. i understand it prob about some driver ofc (which i think is because i have no video card installed in my computer or bettter said im only using onboard video card ) please if someone could help me or tell me if there is another way to open the AVD android phone screen, -i have uploaded a picture from the error here i hope it appears in the question -
-thx
gpu error

If it is possible update your graphics driver. You are using a default driver that Windows installs for you.
Or you can use Geny Motion, a lightweight Android virtual device.

Why emulator or Genymotion is unable to run my app properly?

I am using Genymotion for personal use to test my apps.However, the emulator opens up, displays everything fine.As soon as I run my app, it hangs or crashes.Same is happening when I use default android emulator.Also its taking quite too long to open my default emulator.I checked HAX on console and it is running fine.My system RAM is 8Gb.It appears to me some memory like issue but cannot figure it out exactly.

I had the same problem with ...
The solution that worked for me with x86 emulator was to update HAXM with the last version and to restart my computer.

may be this also works for you
The root cause was a missing video driver (the vanilla Microsoft one wasn't enough). I was working with a cobbled-together frankenbox and found it useful to follow the instructions on finding the right driver here:

Xamarin Fail to initialize device

Im a freshman of Xamarin. Pls help.
I just followed the guideline of Xamarin
https://developer.xamarin.com/guides/android/getting_started/hello,android/hello,android_quickstart/
until the step of 31
Finally, we can test our application by deploying it to an Android emulator. If you have not yet configured your emulator, please see Xamarin Android Player for setup instructions. In this example, we have installed the Nexus 4 (KitKat) (Android 4.4.2, API Level 19) virtual device and we have started it from the Xamarin Android Player Device Manager console:
I run the Xamarin Android player to test this quick start, it has a problem,
I got a message: Fail to initialize device
I google it with 0 answer
suck this account need a 10 reputation to upload a picture , how I can get the reputation?

Try to check your installed devices.
When I installed Xamarin Android Player no devices were downloaded automatically. You need download and install all you needed devices manually.

For now it's better to use Genymotion but in the future Xamarin Android Player will be a good alternative too,
if you want Xamarin Android Player for now, install the latest version and download manually a device, Make it start and try again.

The solution can be in enabling virtual technology in the bios.

I had same issue.
My solution was to enable
I had to go to My 'Network Connections' in my control panel, found the Connection named 'Virtual Box Host-Only Network', right clicked it and went to the properties and CHECKED the option 'VirtualBox NDIS6 Bridge Networking Driver' and reconnected. This fixed it for me.

Developing Android Apps - Can't use any android emulator

I searched for days to find a way to start programming android applications however I failed every single try.
First I installed Android Studio on my Windows 7 computer, everything went fine.
After installation I tried to start a project and debug it and appeared my first error that you can see in the link below.
http://i.stack.imgur.com/q9BlJ.png
Then I searched here on stackoverflow and I searched on every single website that is related to this error. What did I learn?
I need to install an Intel package on SDK Manager
I also need to install an executable present on appdata android studio directory
I MUST disable or uninstall hyper-v to install the exe file I spoke on the step before
I searched on how to get this hyper-v out of my computer and I found many ways however when I tried this ways and then tried to install the exe file, it shows this message:
http://i.stack.imgur.com/gQjON.png
I don't know if my computer has hyper-v, the only way I can't do is going to my BIOS and disable it because I don't know the keys I need to press to show my computer BIOS (on the startup it doesn't show any label about the BIOS keys).
My computer model is Sony VAIO VGN-NS11Z_S, if someone knows the BIOS keys please tell me.
I can't use the emulator to try out my app so I gave up from Android Studio and I started with Eclipse and the ADT Plugin.
My problem is still the same, I don't if it is because hyper-v but the android emulator don't work.
Everything is fine but I can't test my app so I can't develop them too...
I really appreciate any help, I want to create Android apps so much, please give me an alternative or a way to fix my problems.
Thank you

You can try using Genymotion. It also needs some sort of hardware acceleration but give it a try.
It can't be that hard to find out the keystroke for your BIOS (EDIT: okay, it can be obviously for some devices). Just google for "your mainboard manufacturer + bios". I found this thread, one post even mentions Hyper-V.
Android Studio and Eclipse have nothing to do with the Emulator. The Emulator is part of the Android SDK which is identical for both IDEs. Throw away Eclipse (at least for Android).
As a last resort, run the Emulator with an ARM image instead of the i86 one, I think it runs without HAX and without hardware acceleration. It's damn slow though.
If you want to do serious Android development, there's no way around a real device. There's plenty of cheap options. That's just a little heads up though, I understand though that you still need an emulator for development.

Here's an interesting link on Sony's website about a BIOS update that may help (disclaimer: BIOS updates are not guaranteed to be safe, install at your own risk and make sure it's the exact right one for your computer):
http://www.sony.co.uk/support/en/content/cnt-dwnl/prd-comp/EP0000208387_4486/VGN-NS11Z
But also within that link it mentions to press F2 to get into your BIOS. Does that work for you?
