Answer 1

Some older plugins are no longer compatible with the latest Android Studio (4.1 right now). Also, they seem to have changed the location of the plugins folder with this new version.

You will have to uninstall the plugin. In my case, I couldn't see the plugin listed in the IDE settings. I had to manually find and delete the file.

Currently, plugins are located in the following directories (make sure to change the android version number in the path if your software version is different; versions below 3 are located differently as detailed here):

Windows (ctrl+L in the explorer then paste it): %APPDATA%\Google\AndroidStudio4.1\plugins

MacOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Google/AndroidStudio4.1/plugins

linux: ~/.config/Google/AndroidStudio4.1/plugins or ~/.local/share/Google/AndroidStudio4.1/

Delete the plugins there and the error should be gone.

1. Download the plugin by going to Android Studio File/Setting/Plugins search for Android Wifi ADB and install it.

2. Now You may found AndroidWiFiADB Folder at path ==> C:\Users\PCUserName\AppData\Roaming\Google\AndroidStudio\Plugins , Cut the Android Wifi ADB Folder.

3. Now Paste That AndroidWiFiADB Folder at path ==> C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\plugins

4. Restart Android Studio And Enjoy Debugging through WiFi.
