Android studio does not run in Windows 8. I download it, install, but when i press on icon to run it - nothing happens. I try to run with admin. I try to set compatibility with Windows 7.
If Studio doesn't start after an upgrade, the problem may be due to an invalid Android Studio configuration imported from a previous version of Android Studio or an incompatible plugin.
How To Close, Save Android Studio Project. To close the project you need to click the ” File —> Close Project ” menu in the top menu bar. To save the Android project, you need to click the ” File —> Save All ” menu in the top menu bar.
Open Start menu > Computer > System Properties > Advanced System Properties In the Advanced tab > Environment Variables. Add new system variable JAVA_HOME that points to JDK folder, C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1. 7.0_13\
Choose a start menu folder for the "Android Studio" shortcut and click the "Install" button to proceed. After the successful completion of the installation, click on the "Next" button. Click on the "Finish" button to proceed. Now, your Android studio welcome screen will appear on the screen.
For debugging it is very helpful to start C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-studio\bin\studio.bat
.
That points out what is wrong. In my case I had to update my JDK_HOME
environment variable to point to the currient installation.
From the android documentation (this part was published after I wrote my answer):
Known issue: On some Windows systems, the launcher script does not find where Java is installed. If you encounter this problem, you need to set an environment variable indicating the correct location.
Select Start menu > Computer > System Properties > Advanced System Properties. Then open Advanced tab > Environment Variables and add a new system variable
JAVA_HOME
that points to your JDK folder, for exampleC:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_21
