I recently installed Android studio and the first time around AVD worked fine and the emulator was up and running no problem with that. But when I turned off my computer and booted it up again. But now when i try to open avd the following error message is displayed
when i reinstalled the android studio the same thing happens again,for the first time around it works but second time around the same error message comes.
Not able to find solutions over the internet as well.
This is a common problem that many people have faced. The Access Denied is indicating that Android Studio is trying to access files that require elevated privileges.
To solve this error, right click your Android Studio launcher, and click Run as Administrator.

I'm new to Android/Kotlin programming (not to programming in general) and I'm following the Kotlin Basics course on developer.android.com.
The very first lesson after having installed Android Studio is to create a Virtual Device and run an extremely basic app on it.
However I can't get the emulator to work. The very first time I tried, it opened a small window with a progress bar but it became unresponsive at around 1/4 progress and I had to eventually kill it.
Since then it just won't start/open.
After I click run, the code compiles and the Event Log within Android Studio says Executing tasks[...] then Gradle build finished[...] and that's it. Nothing happens beyond that and the Emulator window says "No emulators are currently running".
However:
Some emulator-related processes have been started. Those processes stay alive even after closing Android Studio..
If I try to start the AVD from within the device manager, I get an error message that the device is already running
I am unable to delete these .lock files without killing the aforementioned processes
What I could find:
The Windows Event Viewer shows an Application Error
The Android Studio log file also shows an Error
I don't know what to do with either of these messages, though
What I tried
Killing the emulator processes, removing the *.lock files and trying again.
Creating a different AVD (different device, different version of Android)
Completely reinstalling Android Studio and the SDK following the accepted answer to this question: How to completely uninstall Android Studio from windows(v10)?.
None of this had any effect.
I'm running Android Studio Arctic Fox (2020.3.1 Patch 4) on Windows 10 Pro (10.0.19042 Build 19042).
I am able to run the app on my actual phone but down the line I would like to be able to test apps on different types of devices or without having to always use my physical one.
All help would be greatly appreciated.
By running and emulator.exe command in a command prompt, I was able to see yet another error message, the same one as in this post: emulator: incompatible HAX module version 3 requirs minimum version 4, and the answer to that post from user Harold Sota (as well as the comment under it from Harun, more specific to my situation) solved the issue.
I'm now stuck assuming its hardware, but wouldn't make too much sense as it used to work before, and just stopped out of nowhere.
Yesterday the whole day, when trying to open emulator on any device, in any api, in any app (including opening just the emulator by itself), I get This crash message.
I've tried uninstalling and installing android studio, and didn't work. I ended up fully formatting my pc, and installing AS again. The error persisted in the first 3 runs, and after creating a device running api 28, it shows This error (that I have had before). When I used to see it, I would still be able to run the app, but now it was just a black screen.
I found out that even though I installed the latest recommended version of AS, it didn't come with abd.exe. I downloaded the plstform-tools.zip, and when adding everything inside my sdk folder, avd stopped working. I decided to only add instead, the abd.exe file. Avd opened again, but the screen still stayed black.
I'm running amd Radeon 7500, so I decided to try an emulator running ARM64. The emulator just loads forever, but never opens up.
Right now, when I try to run api 29 or 30, instead of getting the same crash message as usual, I will just get a pop up saying the emulator was terminated, and shows in console log "error while waiting for the device: emulator proccess for avd was killed"
To add: for some random reason, all my installations today and yesterday, did not include an uninstall.exe
I tried opening emulator using CMD, and the error I get is
"cannot add library vulkan-1.dll: failed
cannot add library vulkan-1.dll: failed"
I have seen this error online, but seems like it usually shows an extra line saying "Emulator terminated with exit code" Mine does not have that.
I also have tried using Emulated performance in Software mode
Someone at Reddit was able to help me:
for anyone that gets stuck here in the future, try this:
open c:\Users(user name).Android and create a file called “advancedFeatures.ini”. In this file, write:
Vulkan = off
GLDirectMem = on
When trying to run my device emulator on Android Studio, a pop-up appears:
Previously, I had gotten the error 'Unable to locate adb', but after replacing the default platform_tools folder with the
official version, this pop-up now replaced the last one. I don't think this is a problem with my installation, as I've uninstalled and reinstalled Android Studio and the flutter-sdk several times, each attempt met with the unable to locate adb error, then this one. Could it be the way I'm unzipping a certain file? I'm grasping at straws here.
Are there any fixes for this? To be honest, I'm not even sure where to start. I haven't seen any other page that describes getting this error while trying to launch an emulator.
Thank you for your time!
Edit: Error description in plain-text:
EventQueue.isDispatchThread()=false Toolkit.getEventQueue()=com.intellij.ide.IdeEventQueue#2c5cc720
Current thread: Thread[ApplicationImpl pooled thread 4,4,Idea Thread Group] 1175604479
SystemEventQueueThread: Thread[AWT-EventQueue-0,6,Idea Thread Group] 1657237134
I've tried to create a new device and wipe the data on my current one, but that just results in the unable to locate adb pop-up again (I don't have an antivirus like Avaast enabled by the way), and I am absolutely certain that adb.exe is in my file-path (C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\platform-tools\adb.exe). I have uninstalled and reinstalled platform-tools from the SDK-manager multiple times, each instance being met with this same error. I cannot run any flutter program, on any emulator. I have not yet tried with a regular Android Studio project. Any ideas?
so, i'm still not sure why the EventQueue error is showing, but what I do know is that the unable to locate adb is a negligible pop-up if you know for certain that adb.exe is in your file-directory. My issue was that I didn't have enough memory to run the emulator on my machine, so be sure to have plenty of room while developing apps (~11 gigs while using Android Studio and flutter-sdk)! That's all, it certainly was a strange experience working through it.
In my case, what helped, was to just restart an emulator.
After installing everything it couldn't create emulator. Running emulator from android studio. Using a Hello world Xamarin app. It installs on the emulator successfully but stops after showing a white screen. Then closes automatically showing this error:
Couldn't connect debugger. You can see more details in Xamarin Diagnostic output and the full exception on logs.
Manually opening the app also fails to show second time but opeing it third time shows the UI that has only a label and a button.
Third time it works. Also closed android studio so that theres no conflict on debugger.
Now what is wrong here?
Clean and Rebuild the Solution Is working fine for me, also in some cases you need to uninstall the app from Device.
I got the same problem after updating Android Sdk from Android Studio, then Visual Studio showed that error. A restart will help.
I hope this should mainly because of the device connectivity, so I change the cable and the issue was solved. 😀
Doing a factory reset on my emulator device via Android Device Manager fixed this for me.
Since yesterday, my android studio emulators don't start. It was just after i updated Android Studio Library, i don't know if it is just a coïncidence.
What happens when i press start is:
The emulator command is executed
I see emulator.exe process in windows task manager, but no window is opened
Before that, the emulators started just fine, i had no problems, so it shouldn't be hardware issues.
I tried to launch it from the command line, to see if there were errors, but there's nothing. I also checked android studio's logs but still nothing... I also reinstalled completely android studio with no effects. I also tried to let it run for awhile but nothing appears.
Does anyone have a clue about what could cause this ?
EDIT :
It was a known issue (GPU related) of the SDK Tools 25.1.1 , it has been updated about 5 days later and now it works perfectly.
I had exactly the same issue.
