I'm starting out with mobile development and xamarin forms and am having a lot of issues. I was initially getting a lot of errors starting even sample apps, and I've gradually got to a point where I'm getting this as I start my emulator:
3>Emulator Android_Accelerated_Nougat cannot be started (adb cannot initialize device).
========== Build: 2 succeeded, 0 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========
========== Deploy: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 skipped ==========
I'm using Visual Studio 2017 and a Nougat emulator (Android 7.1 API 25).

In most cases, it should work out of the box. My proposition to you would be to re-install Xamarin plugin. But at first you can try with a different emulator. For example a good one - https://www.genymotion.com/
But I have doubts that it would work, since there should not be errors that you need to fix to run a demo project, and that means that maybe your emulator is not the problem.
