Missing Logcat in Android Studio 4.1

Question

I recently installed AS in my windows machine, I try to see my logs in Logcat but can't find/activate the Logcat. I tried to follow the instructions here and there but still missing my log cat:

How can I found and activate the Logcat?

For now I'm using the AS Console to see the logs and it is very bad so I will appreciate any solution/tip/idea.

Thanks!!

Answer 1

I had the same problem. I tried some recommendations of others similar posts, but it didn't work. I did this (The Event Log helped me!):

Open the Event Log and see the messages. I found a message like this:

Android Studio for some reason didn't find the Android framework configured

I clicked the link and then finally Android Studio showed me Logcat

Click on the menu View -> Appearance and then check that Tool Windows Bar option is ticked ;)
