I know this is an old topic, but I'll post it here in case if anyone is having the same issue.

For me, this usually happens when WSL is being used, while Android SDK is installed under Windows (there you have adb.exe instead of adb).

Making another copy of adb.exe binary as adb resolved the issue for me:

copy adb.exe adb
