Android Studio plugin directories are /Applications/Android Studio. app/plugins and ~/Library/Application Support/AndroidStudioPreview (hidden). Perhaps if you find and delete the bad plugin folder Android Studio will be able to be started correctly.
Android Studio plugins extend or add functionality to the Android Studio IDE. Plugins can be written in Kotlin or Java, or a mix of both, and are created using IntelliJ IDEA and the IntelliJ Platform. It's also helpful to be familiar with Java Swing.
With the new version of Android studio (4.1) some plugins are compatible with IntelliJ IDEA only. I had some issues in delete the plugins not compatible from Android Studio so I solved the problem looking in my File Manager.
I located the unsupported plugins in
/home/**YOUR_USERNAME**/.local/share/Google/AndroidStudio4.1/
I deleted the JAR files and the issue was solved.
Some other pluging anyway could create other issues and Android Studio ask us if we want to report them to Google. Deleting the plugins files or Folders, as above,this issue was solved too.
