I've installed the newest version of Android Studio with the installer on my Windows 10, currently it's version 2021.3.1.17 Dolphin.
Upon launching it, the splash screen appears and the little bar loads to the end and then it gets stuck indefinitely on that screen. All I'm seeing is this:
I've tried the following stuff already:
Completely uninstalling Android Studio, making sure all the files have been removed correctly before re-installing it (except the JetBrains folder, since I have other JetBrains stuff in it)
Re-Downloading the installer from the official Android Studio Website to make sure it was not corrupted.
Run as Administrator.
Was previously installed on a non-primary drive D:/, and I've also tried installing it on my primary drive C:/ just in case, same issue with C:/ installation too.
Ran studio.bat to see any errors, however, I'm assuming that bat file itself is buggy. It tells me that it does not find any JRE or JDK installation within the path. So to fix it I've set the newest Oracle JDK19 as my JAVA_HOME and the /bin accordingly, however, the studio.bat will then continue a long java error which seems honestly unfixable, so I won't even bother posting it here. Me setting the path shouldn't even be necessary, as Android Studio comes bundled with a JDK... and it should be using that one anyway.
So I'm out of things to try. I cannot make it work. My only lead was the Java error, but according to some Google search, I shouldn't even have to deal with it as it comes bundled with Android Studio. Looking into the files, there is indeed a jre folder within the Android Studio installation. Is it not using that one? What could be the reason that it is not using it if that is the case?
So, I was able to fix it myself after trying a few hours more. I've had also other Java installations (Java JDK 8, JDK 19) that interfered somehow with Android Studio. I've uninstalled everything related to Android Studio and I've uninstalled every Java version I had.
Additionally, I've removed every reference to Java or Android Studio from all of my system and environment variables. Also removed a path to Android SDK that was within my system variables.
After rebooting and installing Android Studio, it worked. Haven't installed any Java version so far, so not sure if the issues will return if I install my Java versions again.
I am unable to debug a Xamarin.iOS application out of JetBrains Rider 2022.2.2. This is the error that gets thrown when trying to deploy to the simulator:

I had the same problem.
Let me guess... You just upgraded to XCode14 and the corresponding Command Line Tools?
Downgrading XCode and Command Line Tools to 13.4.1 helped me.
What worked for me
Go To https://developer.apple.com/download/all/?q=command%20line%20tools
Download XCode and Command Line Tools for Xcode 13.4. Unpack Xcode (13.4.1) and rename it (for example Xcode 13) and place it parallel to Xcode (14) in the programfolder.
.
Then install the Command Line Tool.
Now in Xcode (still 14) > Preferences > Location > Command Line Tools, select version 13.4.1 instead of 14. You can see the Path for it is "Application/Xcode 13".
For safety restart tools, and it worked again...
Update: With the last update of Visual Studio, the downgrade was no longer necessary for me. Since then I can build the apps with XCode 14 and the corresponding command line tools without any problems. So I suggest upgrading Visual Studio to the latest version first.
Here is how I made it work:
Download the former version here (note: you need a developer account)
Double-click on the downloaded .xip file to install XCode 13.4.1
Rename the newly installed XCode application into Xcode.13.4.1.app and move it into your Applications folder
Open the usual XCode application and go to the preferences
In the locations tab you will be able to select XCode 13.4.1 for Command Line Tools
Redownload Visual Studio?
It turns out Microsoft released a brand new Visual Studio at some point.
We haven't been in our Xamarin project for a while and even though it said there were no updates, no Simulators were showing up.
Our Visual Studio said the version was 8.10.25 yet when I was reading the release notes, they referred to version 17.3.7.
Our team had to download Visual Studio again and then we saw the version updated to 17.3.7.
So check your version of Visual Studio and redownload the newest one. That's what fixed this issue for us.
Latest update fixed the issue for me.
I had the same issue, while searching for answer I found this thread,
writing this to confirm that I took the latest update on 9th nov(NET 7 SDK). Issue seems resolved with latest update.
There is a more elegant solution to this problem. You need to upgrade Xamarin.iOS manually. The releases are on GitHub 16.0.0.72 did the trick for me.
I updated my iPhone to iOS 15.0 yesterday and I wanted to build in Xcode (version 12.5.1).
But in Xcode it is showing 'iPhone (unsupported OS version)' and when I try to build (command + R) then I get the error:
Xcode doesn’t support iPhone’s iOS 15.0 (19A346).
Is there a way to use it without downgrading iOS?
Without updating Xcode, you need to put the relevant device file in the DeviceSupport section and run Xcode again. DeviceSupport files are located here.
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport
https://github.com/filsv/iPhoneOSDeviceSupport
You can download iOS15 devicesupport file from here, then you need to unzip, then you need to put it in DeviceSupport section on your mac.
When you restart Xcode, there should be no problem.
Update for iOS 15.1
For 15.1 devices, You can copy file from 15.0 to the same directory as 15.1. Then you need to open Xcode again, it should be fine.
The accepted answer's repository doesn't include some of the latest versions like 16.1, here is a more updated one:

At first I've tried to update Android Studio 4.1 Canary 8 to Canary 9 as usual through update dialog. At the first start Canary 9 have thrown error:
Missing essential plugin:
org.jetbrains.android
Please reinstall Android Studio from scratch.
So I downloaded Canary 9 distribution from official source (https://developer.android.com/studio/preview). Deleted Canary 8 catalog and extracted tar.gz with Canary 9. Then launched android-studio/bin/studio.sh with the same error.
I renamed ~/.AndroidStudioPreview4.1 catalog and started studio once more. Same error.
Now I rolled back to Canary 8 from my backup.
Any help how to move from Canary 8 to 9?
Basically this issue mentioned in release notes
In Android Studio 4.1 Canary 9, you may see the following error when
first launching Android Studio after upgrading:
missing essential plugin org.jetbrains.android
This can happen when you import your settings from a previous version
of Android Studio. Typically, this means you have a locally installed
Kotlin plugin that is not compatible with the new IDE.
To fix this issue, remove the Kotlin directory from the following
locations:
Linux: ~/.local/share/Google/AndroidStudioPreview4.1
Windows:
C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\Google\AndroidStudioPreview4.1
MacOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Google/AndroidStudioPreview4.1
Because there is no Kotlin plugin compatible with Canary 9 currently
available from JetBrains, we have bundled our own Kotlin plugin with
the Canary 9 update, so you don't need to manually install a Kotlin
plugin.
source
At the same time by path ~/.local/share/Google/AndroidStudioPreview4.1 no such file or directory. The only catalog named AndroidStudioPreview4.1 founded by ./.cache/Google/AndroidStudioPreview4.1. So I deleted it without any effect on subject issue.
Then I completely removed ~/.AndroidStudioPreview4.1 instead of renaming which I'd done before. And resolved the issue.
I believe Google bundle Kotlin plugin in a different way JetBrains do. So paths differ. Maybe path for Windows to. I believe paths should be corrected in release notes.
Solution:
rm -r ~/.AndroidStudioPreview4.1
Solved this problem by using terminal in Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS
toumbou#toumbou-Aspire-V3-471:~$ cd ~/.AndroidStudio4.0/config
toumbou#toumbou-Aspire-V3-471:~/.AndroidStudio4.0/config$ ls
codestyles disabled_plugins.txt inspection plugins tasks user.token
colors disabled_update.txt options port.lock terminal workspace
toumbou#toumbou-Aspire-V3-471:~/.AndroidStudio4.0/config$
and open the file via nautilus
toumbou#toumbou-Aspire-V3-471:~/.AndroidStudio4.0$ nautilus config
Then move the config folder and remove also the kotlinRefractoring.xml and also I removed the caches of my previous project so now I got it running fine again with some tweaks all things ares fine.
When I start Android Studio, it shows popup regarding new update of 1.1 release. But when I start updating, After downloading all patch files, while restarting, it shows following error:
I searched almost everywhere on Google and Stackoverflow. There are already two questions on so: this and this. But none of them are have any correct answer. I also tried running as administrator, restarting PC, turning off the firewall, uninstalling antivirus. But none of them worked.
I am using windows 7 32-bit. How to solve this problem? Can anyone help?
I know this is an older question but I encountered the same error while updating SDK components in Android Studio 2.3.3. I was able to fix the problem by starting the SDK manager and un-checking the components that showed the error and clicked "Apply". That un-installed just that component. When it was finished, I re-checked the component and clicked "Apply" again. When it was finished, the problematic component was updated to the newest version. This was much quicker than doing a full un-install/re-install as stated in one of the solutions above.
Hope this helps someone.
This is another option, it is not much easier than reinstalling but at least you don't have to worry about your settings getting lost
Go to help->about and note the version you currently have installed
Download zip file for your current version at https://developer.android.com/studio/archive
Manually overwrite conflicted files with files from zip
Update normally
I had a similar problem on some other files and could not figure it out.
You should download the last Android Studio version and remove the old one.
It appears like the only way to bypass this error and successfully update Android Studio is to uninstall and reinstall it.
Before uninstalling, make a backup of your IDE settings through File | Export Settings.
Download the "No SDK tools included" exe from the Other Downloads section. Avoid using download accelerators as they often mess up the downloads from https://dl.google.com .
In the Install Wizard, you may uncheck to update AVD if you use Genymotion and don't need Google's Android emulator.
Use the JetBrains Toolbox for Android Studio update, problem solved. No need to mess with the file permissions. Especially on company devices.
I had this issue on Ubuntu 18.04 when tried to update Android Studio from 3.4 to 3.5 version. I have changed Android Studio directory's ownership to my user:
sudo chown -R <username> /opt/android-studio
It resolved all but one errors for me, because I still had a jre/bin/java - Access Denied error, which I have resolved by killing its process:
# The second column of this command's output is PID.
ps -aux | grep /opt/android-studio/jre/bin/java
kill <PID>
It might also happen that you need to logout and and re login as admin user in your system.
Update the Android studio [in admin user].
Re login as a previous user.
You should check the JDK Location settings, which appears be changed on every Android Studio update, with commands ctrl + Alt + Shift + S (to reveal the Project Structure menu options, and uncheck the Use embedded JDK and find your current JDK Location, on windows machines, you can see that location on environment variables JAVA_HOME.
There is a workaround, try deleting or moving the files that are causing the conflicts to another folder when the Update starts NOT BEFORE! That worked for me.
I know this is a very old question, but I face this issue almost every time I try to update my studio. Only solution I know which works for sure is clean install of studio....which is time consuming. So the solution is when you get to know the name of the file, search the location of that folder containing specified file. Check if that folder has lock icon on it, if it has then change the sharing settings to everyone and share the folder. If it does not have the lock icon on the folder check if it is in read-only mode. This worked for me hopefully someone finds this useful.
Cheers.
I had a similar problem. What I did was to make sure of the whole folder's ownership. For some reason, some files where owned by root, so I changed it to my ownership. In linux you can use the followoing command on the Android Studio folder:
sudo chown yourusername:yourusername -R android-studio-folder
I just tried again and everything updated successfully. Hope it helps!
The only solution worked for me is I have reinstalled Android Studio the latest version without uninstalling manually it and when starting the installer it asked me to uninstall and said that your settings will not be lost so I checked the uninstall and everything went smooth without any problems and got the latest version installed and all my settings the same.
I had this symptom when updating from Android Studio 3.4.2 to 3.5.
In my case, the affected file was plugins/Kotlin/kotlinc/bin/kotlinc.
The cause turned out to be that while the file's contents had not been modified at all... the Unix permissions bits on it had been.
Specifically, this was a file that comes as non-executable, and I had at some point chmod'd it to executable (because it should be) in order to use it from the command line.
The fix was to set those permissions bits back, with chmod:
$ chmod a-x /PATH/TO/android-studio/plugins/Kotlin/kotlinc/bin/*
This probably isn't a super common cause for this symptom, but hopefully it will be helpful to someone else. :-) I certainly didn't remember making that change, though once I spotted it I know exactly why I made it.
You can found the files in the android-sdk folder, and delete those files, and check your permission of the folder(android-sdk, build-tools, tools), if your can write, and download again.
I solve the issue.
I had the same error when upgrading from 3.1.x to 3.5.x. What worked for me was downloading the new Android Studio image from https://developer.android.com/studio and installing it (when asking me if I want to replace the old version I said yes). Everything seems to work fine now.
I also had the same error when upgrading from 3.5 to 3.6, I managed to solve this without losing any sdk platforms and virtual machines in avd by installing the latest version of android,First Export the settings and then delete the two folders ".AndroidStudio3.x" in home directory and the "android-studio" in /usr/local or /opt directory, then download the zip file of latest version of android studio and move the "android-studio" folder to /usr/local or /opt. Now run the /android-studio/bin/studio.sh and import the settings,Now Latest version will be installed.
I got this error when I was trying to upgrade Android Studio using a different user account to the account that installed Android Studio (the account had admin privileges). When I switched to the account which installed Android Studio I was able to upgrade without this problem happening.
I have had a similar issue and solved it. Some documents were encrypted by the software installed on my PC, so updating to Android Studio 3.6 was not possible (in fact every update I have the same issue).
To solve it, just find those files in the Android Studio installation folder (probably Program Files/Android) and decrypt it. After that, you should be good to go. I hope it helps!
