Creating Android virtual device
Unable to create a virtual device: Unable to create Android virtual device
I'm running Android studio for the first time in Windows 7.
Screenshot:
And after opening the Andriod studio and running a sample app, I get the error
Error while waiting for device: Could not start AVD
Why is it unable to create a virtual device and how can I solve the problem?
All what you can do with that screen is just to click finish.
The problem that you may get as a result is failing in creating a first Virtual Device for you because its config file is either missing (not created) or corrupted !
So what you would do is just to create your own new Virtual Device and delete the corrupted one!
Even though I don't know what exactly caused the avd creation problem in a new laptop. I did exactly the same thing as user @Jamalla posted. I clicked finish and tried to run my sample app in the existing emulator. As Jamalla pointed out the config.ini
file was corrupted. So I deleted the existing AVD and created a new one. But I couldn't start it either because my VT was not enabled in my BIOS.
After enabling my VTx in BIOS menu I was able to start the AVD with no issues.
