Android Studio doesn't recognize device on MacOS even though adb recognizes it

Hi I am running Mac OS 10.15.3 and I wanna debug my app from Android Studio 3.6.1 to my Nexus 5. But Android Studio for for some reason doesn't recognize device even though if I run adb devices it lists my device and says that it is connected. I checked USB settings in phone and I enabled debugging and tried setting MTP and PTP. Also in Android Studio under "Device File Explorer" I see error message saying:

"Error Initializing ADB: Android Debug Bridge not found.

Even though it is installed and I can issue adb commands through terminal.

Did anyone had this issue with MacOS and Android Studio ?

You can check if the tools are up to date.

Find this icon in the top-right of Android Studio.

enter image description here

It opens Android SDK menu. Now, click on the SDK Tools pane.

Update all the outdated tools that you can and retry. I now this is not the best answer but give it a try.
