After following the blog post on using the Visual Studio Emulator for Android from Android Studio, and starting the emulator, when I am prompted to choose a running emulator, nothing shows up on the list.
I'm running Windows 10 x64.

Just open up the Visual Studio Emulator for Android entry in your Start Menu, hit play, and the emulator is ready to debug from any IDE. Download the standalone emulator today!
On Windows, it's the %LocalAppData%\Android\Sdk directory. This normally expands to C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk , although it might vary based on your system. On macOS, it's the $HOME/Library/Android/sdk directory.
If the emulator fails to launch due to the error vulkan-1. dll cannot be found , you probably need to update the emulator. To update the emulator in Android Studio, go to Tools > SDK Manager and install the latest stable version of Android platform.
In case you get an error like "Intel virtualization technology (vt,vt-x) is not enabled". Go to your BIOS settings and enable Hardware Virtualization. Restart Android Studio and then try to start the AVD again.
Open an admin command prompt and enter the following; then restart the emulator.
reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Android SDK Tools" /v Path /d %localappdata%\Android\sdk
Or update the registry manually:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node.Android SDK Tools.Path. Set its value to the location of your Android SDK, which will be like C:\Users\YourName\AppData\Local\Android\sdk.
