(You can verify that hardware acceleration is enabled and which acceleration method the emulator is using.Whether you are using Hyper-V or HAXM for hardware acceleration, you may run into configuration problems or conflicts with other software on your computer.) For example: List of devices attachedĥ.If the emulator does not appear in this list enter the following command: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\emulator\emulator-check.exe" accel If the Android SDK is installed at its default location, adb is located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools\adb.exe if not, modify this path for the location of the Android SDK on your computer.ģ.Type the following command in shell: adb devicesĤ.If the emulator is accessible from the Android SDK, the emulator should appear in the list of attached devices. To verify emulator connectivity, use the following steps:ġ.Launch the emulator from the Android Device Manager (select your virtual device and click Start).Ģ.Open a command prompt and go to the folder where adb is installed. Verify that the Android SDK can connect to your emulator. I've tried to delete and make new emulator, but I've got the same result. For this, open Windows security, then open Current threats and allow adb.exe on device (As shown below).I've tried to run my android studio emulator, but pop up "Unable to locate adb" always appear on my screen and after that my emulator was in crash. Allowing adb.exe on the the system resolves this problem.

Windows security might have quarantined adb.exe. Then go back to Terminal and run the following command: sdkmanager "platform-tools" Method 3: Check your anti-virus For this, open Terminal, switch to C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\tools\bin\sdkmanager and run the following command: sdkmanager -uninstall "platform-tools" Reinstalling the platform-tools resolves the problem.

For this, open Terminal, switch to C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\tools\bin\sdkmanager and run the following command: sdkmanager "platform-tools" Case 2: If adb is present Installing the platform-tools resolves the problem.

If Android Studio IDE is installed, follow Method 1 instead. Method 2: Using sdkmanager command-line tool Then go back to Android Studio and in the SDK Tools, check-mark ✅ Android-SDK Platform-Tools and apply the changes. After this, open C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk and delete the platform-tools folder.
