Pixel launcher keeps stopping, after updating SDK

Question

After updating the SDK, I'm having this problem when I run the emulator:
Pixel launcher keeps stopping,

Please help me and thank you very much
Note: I use android studio 2.3.3

Answer 1

Actually, anas darai's comment is the answer, but I'll expand it a bit. The general workaround is the following:

1. Delete the AVD and the system image;
2. Download the system image;
3. Create a new AVD;

4. Start the Android Emulator;

   4.a. Click on the More button (those 3 horizontal dots) in the Nav Controls (the bar next to the emulator);

   

   4.b. Click on Settings;

   

   4.c. Select from the OpenGL ES renderer dropdown the option ANGLE(D3D11);

   

   4.d. Restart the Android Emulator.

Steps 1 to 3 are optional in most of the cases.

If it still isn't working, you should check the following:

• does your CPU meet the requirements? solution: check out the Hardware requirements from Installation Instructions for HAXM;
• does HAXM have enough RAM and heap space so it can run the AVD? solution: reinstall HAXM and use at least the recommended settings;
• for slightly different solutions, check out Pixel launcher keeps stopping.
