Im on Windows 10 and have been trying for days to get an emulator working with Android Studio and have followed every tutorial religiously with no luck. I have set up the Nexus 6 emulation which starts just fine as shown in my image below but the devices dropdown always says no devices. So frustrated with this and nothing is mentioned about this issue anywhere. I also get an error unable to locate adb everytime I start the virtual device. What is causing the issue and what are the proper steps for setting up to avoid these issues

I'm having trouble getting my emulator to work on my m1 mac. Currently, I am waiting on my physical android phone to arrive so I have to use an emulator for the moment. I have looked at the official google repo (https://github.com/google/android-emulator-m1-preview) for the m1 preview and I noticed it said "Support for downloading the M1-based emulator was added to SDK Manager, so it's not necessary to go to the Github releases page to download a standalone .app anymore. In AVD Manager go to the Other Images tab as by default it doesn't show the ARM64 images." However, I can't seem to find which SDK to download in the SDK manager as every time I attempt to cold boot a virtual device it simply returns the error "Could Not Start AVD".
Sorry if this has been asked before. Couldn't seem to find any posts about it.
So it took some time but I figured it out. In the updated Android Studio you have to create a new virtual device for ARM based machines. Once you select your new device and you get to what android release you would like to run, hit the "other" column. Now you have a list of some of the ARM based Virtual Devices.
Here is a link to a post I found that helped:
Android Studio - How Can I Make an AVD With ARM Instead of HAXM?
Android Studio Dolphin, Virtual Device Manager, now includes arm64a-v8a for Tiramisu API level 33, which works well for M1 mac.
First post--be gentle. Can't find any posts on Android Studio 4.0, so I hope this isn't a repeat. I updated Android Studio from 3.6.3 to 4.0 on Windows 10 (1909). Had created a couple of virtual devices in 3.6.3 (a Pixel 2 running API 28 and a Pixel 3 running API 29)--both worked great in AS-3.6.3 and I could develop apps, compile, load, and run them with no problem.
After the update to AS-4.0, the virtual devices no longer appear in the devices box at the top of the GUI--it just says "No Devices". When I open the AVD Manager, I can see them, and I can start them (although when I start them I get a pop-up saying "AVD Manager: Unable to locate adb"), but I can't get any code to download and execute on it. On the Pixel 3 emulator, I also get another pop-up saying "Detected ADB: Could not automatically detect an ADB binary.", and it gives instructions to resolve it, which don't make any difference (jump into extended controls and toggle "Use detected ADB location").
When I try to open a past project and run it, I get the same behavior--no devices found.
I've also tried making new emulators, hoping the new setup would recognize them, but to no avail. Tried starting and restarting AS, as well as the computer, also to no avail. I have Android SDK Build-Tools 30-rc4, the latest Android SDK Command-line Tools, Android Emulator 30.0.12 Android SDK Platform-Tools 30.0.1, and the Intel x86 Emulator Accelerator all installed.
I've Googled and spoken words of fierce power over this for several days now. Any suggestions for how to get AS-4.0 to recognize the emulators? I've resisted uninstalling everything and starting over--was hoping it was just a configuration thing.
Thanks in advance,

After some more Googling, I found the answer here (I think my constraint of wanting an answer for AS-4.0 specifically kept me from finding it):
Could not automatically detect an ADB binary - Android Studio
I had to redownload the SDK platform-tools zip file and reinstall it. I don't know why the old one got messed up with the migration from AS-3.6.3 to 4.0, but there you go--such is life with complicated software.
As soon as I replaced the old platform-tools directory with the new one, all my old emulators showed up and I was back in business.
Thanks anyway!

Please Note: I tried several available solutions but none worked for me since yesterday hence posting this. I have also mentioned below what are things I have tried so far.
I am new to Android Studio and Flutter application and I am trying to build a simple Flutter app using the Android Studio.
I have downloaded and kept my flutter files in C:\src\flutter. Also added to Environment variables.
I have installed the Android Studio and also installed the Flutter plugin with the Dart.
I created the Virtual Emulator Device using the Tools->AVD Manager and choose the Nexus 6 with the Android 8.1
Created a simple project using the File->New Flutter Project->Flutter Application.
When I try to run this application I get the following error:
As you can see in the screenshot it shows that the No Devices in the emulator section not sure how to run it.
Things I have tried so far:
If I run flutter doctor then I get a tick for all the things except Connect Devices. My guess is that it is obvious because I have not connected any external device but using the emulators.
I tried to create the emulators using the command flutter emulators --create Nexus_6 and tried to launch it using the command flutter emulator launch.
I tried running the Android studio as an Administrator.
Restarted the system several times.
My adb.exe was crashing so updated the windows and replaced it with the new adb.exe as mentioned in one of the solutions.
My flutter emulators show following list in the command prompt:
I tried checking the folder in Appdata -> Local seems to be fine as per other mentioned answers.
When I run the Emulator using the AVD Manager from Android Studio I see that it is firing up the Android Emulator but it is not responding. In addition to this, I also observe in my task manager that process adb.exe(32 bit) is running whereas my WINDOW 8.1 is 64 bit. Is this expected?
I am not sure If I missed something here. Please help me on how to solve the issue.
Using below command on Flutter worked for me:
flutter config --android-sdk [android-sdk-path]
The path is usually C:\Users<username>\AppData\Local\Android\sdk
this path can be found from android studio - SDK manager also.
I've searched all over the web for the past 3 days and can't seem to find a solution. I've done everything mentioned in this post:
Android emulator not showing in Visual Studio
It seems all the 'working' solutions to this problem has been stated in what this guy says he did in his original post, including restarting ADB server (kill and start), restarting my computer, reinstalling emulator and HAMX, installing and running as an admin, changing the timeout delay, reinstalling almost everything, making sure my emulator is installed, etc.
It keeps saying Gradle build finished in 475ms, etc and then waiting for target device to come online for like 5-10 minutes and nothing happens. No emulator shows up. I can't seem to find the solution to this and I am on the verge of giving up, I really need Android Studio to work so I can start on my app.
Can I please get some guidance with this?
If it's relevant, I'm using a Mac.
Have you tried this. Go to the emulator settings and set the Graphics Emulation mode to Software GLES. The default mode will be automatic. I am not sure how it works, but that worked for me on two Linux machines. Being software emulation, the performance of the emulator will not be as good as when using hardware graphics. It seems to be a bug with the SDK.
For me the only thing that worked in macos was to disable docker before starting Studio.
Wipe the data of your Android virtual Device and then start the emulator.
I was using Android studio 4.2 and faced this issue.
No Solutions worked for me so I just erased android studio files. Updated to Android Studio Arctic Fox.

Yesterday, I installed Android Studio's latest version on Ubuntu. Everything ran fine, until I ran the "Hello World!" program. It asked me to create a virtual device. While creating the device, it shows me an error that the AVD manager cannot find a system image. This makes no sense since I have already installed the latest SDK (API level 25, Android 7.1.1). I downloaded the system image from the AVD manager itself, but to no avail.
Can someone help me sort the damn thing out? I switched from Windows to Linux due to the plethora of problems with Android Studio on Windows. But the thing's bugging once again. Here is a screen shot:
