Android studio doesn't launch in Elementary OS (Freya) - linux

Alright, so yesterday I was writing code in Android studio, and when I saw that the autocomplete function wasn't working properly, I did the "Invalidate and Restart" function, that closed the Android Studio. And now, when I try to start Android Studio, simply nothing happens, I can spam the shortcut like crazy, nothing pops up, nothing. I was working on a project so I really need this fixed ASAP, but Google offers no clues.
I'd really appreciate any clues or fixes.

Ended up reinstalling the OS after running into some more issues with removing and reinstalling the Studio a couple of times.

Problem with Android Studio emulator, keep missing (maybe crashing)

I tried to find some solution on StackOverflow but seems like there is no similar problem, I am new to android studio development. The emulator keeps missing after running for a while or I click a few things on the emulator or in my own built application. It is like a crash but does not show any crash messages, the emulator will directly go missing and show this picture below. May I know what's the problem? I tried the solution of wiping all the data on the virtual device, still had the problem
Problem with the emulator
The issue is still not solved yet, but I decided to use React Native with the android studio emulator, it works without crashing.

How to resolve symbols #mipmap and #style in Flutter project?

A while ago my designed Flutter app was running like it should in simulation (virtual device) in Android Studio. After some updates of both Flutter as Android studio I am not able to get the app in simulation. I am new to Flutter and Android studio (have a little knowledge of Xcode, 2 apps in the store) so I have looked at stackoverflow first to find a solution. All tried suggestions did not worked for me and I am hoping somebody can help me.
I have an original version of the project which was running in simulation mode. Now I am working in a duplicated version to find out how to get things up and running again. It worked before but why does Flutter or Android Studio give an error now? The folders and content do exist. Perhaps it is a simple thing to solve but it is not in my knowledge.
What to do to solve the error message I get as shown in the screendump?
The problem seems to be with the resources,
this should help.
Android Studio error: cannot resolve symbol in Xml
Or try to run "flutter clean" (usually solves many problems)
Flutter studio sometimes does not resolve those (no idea why).
Try opening the same Android project in Android studio and check it from there.
Once back, try File->Invalidate Caches/Restart
If they exist and the name is right (without extension), then it could be it.

Why Are Android Studio Menus Not Working?

I have been using Android Studio for years. Very shortly after upgrading to Android Studio 3.5, the menu options have stopped working. I mean, anything under File, Edit .. all the way to Help. By "stopped working", I mean, I can use the mouse to select, and then .. nothing happens. A colleague suggested to invalidate caches. But invalidate caches itself is under the File menu, so nothing happens when it is selected.
Any ideas? Quitting and starting android studio didn't work. Rebooting didn't work. Changing the java version used to run Android Studio didn't work (it is set to be the same one that gradle is using). Even downloading and installing a fresh copy of Android Studio 3.5 didn't work -> from this, I suspect the problem is a settings problem, but WHICH settings got somehow corrupted? and that survives even with a fresh installation of Android Studio?
To find-in-path, the menu option doesn't work, whereas I can directly use the keyboard shortcut ⇧⌘F and it brings up the find window.
Am running on MacOS Mojave. Java home is /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_221.jdk/Contents/Home
Finally, Android Studio 4.0 came along, and we installed the patch to upgrade to it, and the mysterious problem went away, presumably as a result of the upgrade.

Plugin 'org.jetbrains.android' failed to initialize and will be disabled. Please restart Android Studio

I left my computer to sleep with Android Studio open and this suddenly happens to me now.
I get this error when Android Studio starts and it forces me to restart it. Also, when it does restart, I have a bunch of errors of other plugins telling me that the plugin “Android Support” is disabled. I tried the solution of this answer with no avail.
Now, in the menu, under tools, I don't even have the AVD Manager nor the SDK Manager anymore!!!
I am at my workplace getting crazy with this. Please help!!
Thank you
it was not a sleep problem, it happens to me all the time whenever i try to change my system's language to other than ENGLISH.
for example when i try to install android studio on a PC that has its default system language HINDI, then this problem comes. because by changing this, date time formats becomes unreadable to android studio.
Simple solution is- dont change your system language and keep it as English.

emulator not showing up on android studio

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.
