Tools > Android menu doesn't exist in Android Studio

Tags:

From the docs:

To run the AVD Manager, do one of the following:

  • In Android Studio, select Tools > Android > AVD Manager.
  • Click AVD Manager in the toolbar.

Neither of these things exist.

I went into the settings and found the AVD Manager menu item that isn't displayed, and assigned it a keyboard shortcut, but it didn't do anything.

Other sources on the web mention running android avd to start the AVD Manager, but this was deprecated and removed.

************************************************************************** The "android" command is deprecated. For manual SDK, AVD, and project management, please use Android Studio. For command-line tools, use tools\bin\sdkmanager.bat and tools\bin\avdmanager.bat **************************************************************************  Invalid or unsupported command "avd" 

How do I open the AVD Manager?

Just follow the prompts in the android terminal window.

I was able to fix this by trying to build the gradle and when that failed, it prompted me with "install missing platforms and sync project". This fixed the issue. It took about 5 minutes to resolve the gradle dependencies.

Note: This was trying to run an ionic application from the raw ionic generated android code. It is not initially recognized as an android project or application until you do those steps.

Until that all finished, tools>Android>menu was not available.

Just create a new project, then you will get a gradle sync message like this:

Build tools

Then click the link to install Build Tools.

And that's all
