Some of the grate Answer

• Kill from Task Manager - In this case i am not able to delete my process. When i just delete it will automatically create new.(showing me more the one adb in task manger)

• Kill from ADB - This works me some times but I have to do this process at least two or three times. So at least i have to restart my eclipse two or three times minimum and its very time consuming.

• Copy /Platform-Tool to /Tool- I don't know but i have tried this one also.

Finally I am looking for some solution in which i can solve this issue because i am facing this issue at least four times in a day so i am irritate now to restart again and again. I am wasting my 1 hours for this issue in a day.

Anyone have some permanent solution for my issue.?
