[12728]:WARNING:android/base/files/IniFile.cpp:158:Failed to process .ini file C:\Users\User_Name\.android\emu-update-last-check.ini for reading

Question

on Android studio I keep getting this warning:

[12728]:WARNING:./android/base/files/IniFile.cpp:158:Failed to process .ini file C:\Users\user_name.android\emu-update-last-check.ini for reading.

I have no idea what this means.

Answer 1

On my machine, I was missing the emu-update-last-check.ini file for whatever reason. I created an empty file in the folder listed in the message, named it emu-update-last-check.ini, and the error message went away.

HOWEVER, my emulator still did not start successfully, so there is another problem I need to track down. I'm guessing that something didn't get installed correctly. I'll post back here with a solution if I get it fixed.

UPDATE Once I checked the "Use Host GPU" checkbox the emulator started working for me. I also played around with the amount of memory that the emulator was configured with. My current settings are RAM: 1024, VM Heap: 64, Internal Storage: 200 MiB, SD Card: Size 500 MiB.

I hope this helps!
