Could not launch './qemu/windows-x86_64/qemu-system-i386.exe': No such file or directory

Question

I followed everything in this link http://ionicframework.com/docs/guide/installation.html and I installed Genymotion in Android Studio... But I'm struggling with the shown error below... Whenever I'm running ionic run android or ionic emulate android:

Running command: "C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe" 
C:\Users\t\todo\hooks\after_prepare\010_add_platform_class.js 
C:/Users/t/todo

Running command: cmd "/s /c "C:\Users\t\todo\platforms\android\cordova\run.bat""
ANDROID_HOME=C:\Users\t\AppData\Local\Android\sdk

WARNING : no emulator specified, defaulting to Nexus_5_API_23_x86
Waiting for emulator...
Could not launch './qemu/windows-x86_64/qemu-system-i386.exe': No such file or directory

I'm really not getting how to rectify this part... any suggestion or help will be very grateful...

Answer 1

I'm using Android Studio 2.3 with SDK Build-Tools 25.0.2 and my problem was solved installing "Android Emulator":

Answer 2

Try to add the emulator on your PATH.

export PATH="$ANDROID_HOME/emulator:$PATH"

Answer 3

I just installed "Intel x86 Emulator Accelerator (HAXM installer)" in Android Studio

Tools > Android SDK Manager > SDK Tools

Answer 4

Android emulator.exe path has been changed to /sdk/emulator folder on the newer sdk tools. ionic emulator command must be linked to older emulator.exe path so you should change related config file with new path.

I can't point which ionic config file is related with android emulator because i have never used ionic. But if you can change emulator.exe path with newer one, i am sure problem will gone.
