Unable to create new Blank App (Android) in Visual Studio 2015

Tags:

I am trying to create a new Blank App (Android) in Visual Studio 2015 with installed Xamarin, Android SDK and Android emulator. When trying to create a new Project, I just get a popup with the message:

Value cannot be null. Parameter name: path1

Solution Explorer is empty and just a empty folder is created in Projects folder.

How can I solve it?
