Yesterday I've upgraded my Windows 7 SP1 Powershell from 2 to 5.1, and upgraded flutter and dart to latest version using the flutter upgrade command, all worked fine, and I continued working as normal. Today after trying to access my project again I got a couple of errors, and all of my project structure gone. What can I do? and why that happened? Was that due to the upgrade? or something else?

Just delete .idea folder from project directory an re run android studio. it worked for me.
The problem is caused by <projectname>.iml inside the root project folder.
First cut the file from the folder and paste it somewhere else
Restart Android Studio
Close it again and put <projectname>.iml back into the root folder
Restart Android Studio once again
simply cut the (PORJNAME).iml into the desktop and re-run the IDE or android studio.
after re-running close the ide again and move back the (PORJNAME).iml to their own place,
and open the ide
Don't delete or rename any file in your project
but when you update flutter, you must have compatible version from other plugins and dependencies with your new version, so
do this steps and run again it will be ok:-
1- Close android studio and open it again
2- From terminal tab down in android studio run (flutter clean)
3- From terminal also run (flutter doctor)
4- Then run (flutter doctor -v)
5- After all at last run (pub outdated)
6- Close android studio and restart
7- Run your project and enjoy.
When I run the ionic capacitor run android command, to launch my application in Android Studio, I get the error saying:
Unable to launch Android Studio." You must configure "linuxAndroidStudioPath" in your capacitor.config.json to point to the location of studio.sh, using JavaScript-escaped paths:
example:
{
"linuxAndroidStudioPath": "/usr/local/android-studio/bin/studio.sh"
}
but I configured the path my capacitor.config.json but the error persists.
Here's my capacitor.config.json file
First, run whereis android-studio in your terminal. This command will return the path of your android studio.
Mine is /snap/android-studio/current/android-studio/bin/studio.sh. I installed android-studio from the ubuntu software store. Maybe you installed it through a different source and in a different location.
Then add "linuxAndroidStudioPath": "/snap/android-studio/current/android-studio/bin/studio.sh" in capacitor.config.json which is located in the root of your project.
Replace /snap/android-studio/current/android-studio/bin/studio.sh by your path. which is returned to you by whereis android-studio
"linuxAndroidStudioPath": "/snap/android-studio/current/android-studio/bin/studio.sh" is the path.
Add sudo when running the project sudo npx cap open android
in my case, android studio location was "/opt/android-studio/bin/studio.sh"
{
...
"linuxAndroidStudioPath": "/opt/android-studio/bin/studio.sh"
}
I use JetBrains Toolbox and macOS
to open the capacitor project with Android Studio with npx cap open android I had to export the Android Studio path as follow:
export CAPACITOR_ANDROID_STUDIO_PATH="/Users/myuser/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/Toolbox/apps/AndroidStudio/ch-0/201.7199119/Android Studio.app"
Set environment variable--
Step1- Run: nano ~/.bashrc in terminal.
Step2- Add export CAPACITOR_ANDROID_STUDIO_PATH="path of android-studio/bin/studio.sh" in .bashrc file.
Step3- Run npx cap open android in terminal.
I have the same issue and I didn't manage to find out why it can't verify the path for android studio.
In order to use npx cap open android i had to open Android Studio before running the command.
Open your terminal and run gedit .bashrc.
Set the environment variable:
export CAPACITOR_ANDROID_STUDIO_PATH="path of android-studio/bin/studio.sh"
Save your file with Ctrl+s.
This will read your capacitor directly by running
Ionic cap open android
All of the answers here are on point, however I would like to add something small to note.
Its worth noting that Android Studio has different installation locations depending on the distribution you are using and also some installations are command-line based others are offline installations.
Some well known places are:
/usr/local
/usr/share
/opt
Lastly whereas the commands to search for android-studio may work in some instances where the default installation path was not changed. However the command
whereis android-studio
will not return anything in a case where the directory name is not the default i.e
/opt/android-studio-2021.2.1/android-studio/bin/studio.sh"
or
/usr/local/android-studio-2021.2.1/bin/studio.sh"
Here's how I solved this: In Ionic 6x, there's no capacitor.config.json. You'd have to set an environment variable of CAPACITOR_ANDROID_STUDIO_PATH globally. Do this by typing
export CAPACITOR_ANDROID_STUDIO_PATH=/path/to/android-studio/studio.sh
Worth noting that my Android Studio is found at /opt/android-studio/bin and not under /snap/...
Everything looks correct so the likely answer is that you have got the path wrong somehow.
Could you recheck it?
Also, are you running the latest versions of everything?
I have a small problem. I have installed Android Studio on Ubuntu successfully. It is working fine. It is installed in the Admin account. I would like to make the studio available in the user account that I have created. Please guide.
The problem got solved. I hope this answers helps people who are facing a similar problem.
Solution to the problem:
Open terminal. Using sudo -i, become a root user and move the unzipped android studio folder into /opt
mv <your current folder location>/android-studio /opt
Once the folder is moved, cd into /usr/share/applications folder
Open the text editor and create a file named android-studio.desktop. Enter the following code into the file and save it.
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Name=Android Studio
Exec=bash -i "/opt/android-studio/bin/studio.sh" %f
Icon=/opt/android-studio/bin/studio.png
Categories=Development;IDE;
Terminal=false
StartupNotify=true
StartupWMClass=jetbrains-android-studio
Name[en_GB]=android-studio.desktop
Now install the desktop file.
desktop-file-install android-studio.desktop
Now android studio is accessible from the search menu
Close the terminal.
Launch android studio from the search menu (top left icon on the launcher)
Once android studio is running, you can right click on the icon on the launcher and lock it to the launcher.
I have downloaded Android Studio Beta v0.8.14 and followed the steps to install it on Windows 7 from the link:
https://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/index.html?pkg=studio
The link says to launch studio.exe and follow the installation wizard. But the zip file contains studio.exe file in bin folder and directly launches Android Studio(after resolving all issues). There is no installation wizard and so it is not showing up in start menu. I don't have any others problems though but just want to make sure that everything is all right.
Am I missing something?
Android studio doesn't have an installer. you just unzip the file and its ready to go. You are not missing anything.
However, if you want to you can adda start menu shortcut for the .exe file if you want, that doesn't have an installer.
How to set gradle home while importing existing project in Android studio. While trying to import I need to set up this path.
The gradle plugin (which contains a bundled version of gradle) should be already installed in where/you/installed/android-studio/plugins/gradle so you shouldn't need to manually download it. Depending on the version of Android Studio, that last directory may be where/you/installed/android-studio/gradle/gradle-x.y.z (x.y.z is the version, so check your filesystem for the exact path).
If you intend on doing gradle development outside Android Studio or want a different version, you can download it separately and point it at that path, but if you only want to get Android Studio working with the bundled version, this path should do it.
For Mac OS, you can use the following -
/usr/local/opt/gradle/libexec/ or more generically - path/to/gradle/libexec/ - this is recommended. (the first path is what's achieved after installing gradle via Homebrew)
/path/to/android/studio/plugins/gradle - I don't recommend this because this version of Gradle might be out of date, and Android Studio itself might say it's incompatible.
You should be able to find it in C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\Gradle\Gradle 2.2.1. This is running Windows 7 64-Bit. Android Studio 1.0.2.
OSX (Less han two minutes)
Open terminal
Check if Gradle installed gradle --version, if so, goto step 4
If not brew install gradle and Goto step 2
Copy /usr/local/opt/gradle/libexec/
Paste it in Import Project Window in Android Studio > Gradle Home
Important, Celebrate!
Download Gradle http://www.gradle.org/downloads
Install
Set Gradle home to the install directory
On Linux run: whereis gradle.
For me it was /usr/lib/gradle/1.10.
I ran into same problem. I selected location C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-studio\plugins\gradle as Gradle Home
In Ubuntu 14.04 after $ sudo apt-get install gradle
I've got
$ whereis gradle
gradle: /usr/bin/gradle /usr/bin/X11/gradle /usr/share/gradle /usr/share/man/man1/gradle.1.gz
The path to Gradle was /usr/share/gradle
For Mac,
/Applications/Android Studio.app/Contents/gradle/gradle-3.2
Download Gradle as described above, but make sure you download version 1.9 and not the current release (1.11). I just had the same problem and downloaded the current release only to have Android Studio tell me it wasn't supported.
On Arch Linux I could not find it, so I added:
echo $APP_HOME
to /usr/bin/grade (found over which gradle)
The Install dir for me was /usr/share/java/gradle/
For migrating from eclipse to android studio
(Do not need to specify the Gradle home.)
Locate the project you exported from Eclipse, expand it, select the build.gradle file and click OK.
In the following dialog, leave Use gradle wrapper selected and click OK.
Try this for windows users

I tried byteit101's solution but whether I chose android-studio-path/plugins/gradle or android-studio-path/plugins/gradle/lib the IDE said it isn't correct.
Then I changed the gradle home to android-studio-path/gradle/gradle-x.x.x and it works.
Mac OSX / Linux
Step 1: Open terminal :)
Step 2: Open .bash_profile in vim to edit:
> vi ~/.bash_profile
Step 3: Add line:
> export GRADLE_HOME=/usr/local/opt/gradle
(for me it was this location, it can be different for u)
Step 4: Add line:
> export PATH="$PATH:$GRADLE_HOME/bin"
(to export bin directory of gradle)
Step 5: Verify by reopening the terminal or new tab, and check by echoing:
> echo $GRADLE_HOME
On Linux Mint 17 it was
/usr/share/gradle
for me
If you are on a Windows machine, go to the directory:
C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\gradle\
Click the gradle-4.4 folder from Android Studio\File\Settings, and then click the Apply button.
This is my solution on AndroidStudio/Idea for Mac
$ env | grep GRADLE
GRADLE_HOME=/usr/local/Cellar/gradle/2.6
GRADLE_USER_HOME=/Users/leon/.gradle
I used umake to install android studio. For me the path was
/home/user/.local/share/umake/android/android-studio/gradle/gradle-2.14.1
I had to use this
"C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\gradle\gradle-4.1"
Change the version if you have a different one.
I am using Lubuntu, I ended up finding it in :
/usr/share/gradle
Don't need to download or specify anything...
Just go to the install Android Studio plugins Path and search for any file like gradle-wrapper-x.xx.jar (x.xx = version number). Copy it to a subfolder of your project root folder named : gradle.
Example :
- file found gradle-wrapper-1.12.jar in plugins folder of Android Studio Install's path
- my project was on D:\android_repo\myProject
- created a folder into D:\android_repo\myProject\gradle
- copy gradle-wrapper-1.12.jar to this folder D:\android_repo\myProject\gradle
- import again my project and no more question about gradle.
In Windows
..\AndroidStudio2.0Beta6\android-studio\gradle\gradle-2.10
I've stumble across this question, trying to build an Ionic + Cordova app using Gradle from Android Studio installation, rather that installing Gradle separately.
On Centos, the Gradle binary was here: /home/YOURUSERNAME/.gradle/wrapper/dists/gradle-VERSION-all/CUSTOM_HASH/gradle-VERSION/bin
So, I've added export PATH=/home/maxim/.gradle/wrapper/dists/gradle-4.1-all/bzyivzo6n839fup2jbap0tjew/gradle-4.1/bin:$PATH to my ~/.bashrc and ionic cordova run android command worked just fine.
If you are on windows machine, go to the directory C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\gradle\ and click the gradle folder and apply it on
This worked.
C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\gradle\gradle-3.2
If you're using MacPorts gradle's home is:
/opt/local/share/java/gradle
For Ubuntu default version is /usr/lib/gradle/default.
In case of update, you don't need to reassign link in idea/studio.
For OSX, if going to Finder, navigate to this category: /usr/local/opt/ if you do not see gradle folder, install your grandle version manually:
https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-5.4.1-all.zip
https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.4.1-all.zip
If you are looking for specific Gradle version, simply change the version number from the zip links above, unzip and add that in the Gradle folder /usr/local/opt/gradle
If you are on a Windows machine, gradle home is located inside the installation folder of your Android Studio, usually at:
C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\gradle\gradle-5.1.1
Change the version if you have a different one.
On Windows it was
C:/Android Studio/jre
