unrecognized jvm option is used. Please refer to the user guide
chapter on the daemon at

read the following process output to find out more:

Answer 1

Im using Android studio version 2.2.2 on win 10 (32 bit) and this is how i fix this issue:

1. Open your newly created project.
2. Now open gradle.properties and change the JVM argument. i.e org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx1024m Basically it comes with default value of -Xm1536m which somehow is not working (at least for me).
3. Then Rebuild the project and it should work.

Answer 2

add this line instead of following line in gradle.properties file

comment this line #org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx1536m

add this line

org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m
