Android SDK. Can't start AVD

Question

Problem: I'm using only command line tools. AVD just worked fine some time ago. Now with various configurations I get only "Starting emulator for AVD..." which simply closes without any error messages and leaving emulator.exe in Task Manager for eternity.

What I've tried:

• Various devices, API's, RAM above and below 768, with/without Host
  GPU etc;

• Reinstall Java;

• Reinstall Android SDK;

• Run emulator from command line just launches emulator.exe without any errors;

• Delete .android folder in User's folder;

• Set ANDROID_SDK_HOME variable;

• Run SDK Manager.exe/AVD Manager.exe with/without elevated Admin rights;

  verbose key gives me the following log:

emulator:Found AVD name 'jkll' emulator:Found AVD target architecture: arm emulator:Auto-config: -engine classic (arm default) emulator:Looking for emulator-arm to emulate 'arm' CPU emulator:Probing program: C:\Soft\Android\android-sdk\tools/emulator-arm.exe emulator:return result: C:\Soft\Android\android-sdk\tools/emulator-arm.exe emulator:Found target-specific 32-bit emulator binary: C:\Soft\Android\android-sdk\tools/emulator-arm.exe emulator:Adding library search path: 'C:\Soft\Android\android-sdk\tools/lib' emulator: Found directory: C:\Soft\Android\android-sdk/add-ons\addon-google_apis-google-17\images\armeabi-v7a\ emulator: Found directory: C:\Soft\Android\android-sdk/add-ons\addon-google_apis-google-17\images\armeabi-v7a\

Configuration I am working on:

• Windows 10 x64

• Android SDK Manager 25.1.1

• Java JDK 8 Update 91

• i5 CPU with 24GB of RAM

Any suggestions? TY.

I tried all the mentioned solutions. But strangely, I reduced my windows 10 laptop's resolution (from 3840 x 2160 to 1360 x 768) and it worked.

Answer 2

After changed the CPU of my computer and updated sdk, I encounter this problem too.

Now I temporarily solve the problem emulator-x86 I get an error about missing Qt5Core.dll, Qt5Widgets.dll and Qt5Gui.dl:

copy *.dll files in sdk\tools\lib\qt\lib to sdk\tools where the emulator-x86.exe in.

With your verbose I found you are using arm architecture devices.As you are using i5 processor,Windows10 x64 I would Suggest you to use x86 or x86-64 architecture for your devices for this you have to Install Intel x86 Emulator Accelerator (HAXM) from SDkManager.

Hope this helps let me know.
