"Nothing to show" when I tried to insert a new Vector Asset in Android Studio

"Nothing to show" error - vector asset

Hey, all. So, recently I updated my Android Studio Version to 4.1 (the latest version). I wanted to add a vector asset just like the usual but..somehow..the preview of the icons did not show up. I can't choose a vector asset or even add one. Is there any way to fix this? Or maybe, a way to downgrade the version? Thank you so much :(

I was facing the same problem a few days ago, however what finally worked for me was, changing the name of the icons folder in C:\Users\User-name\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk to icon.

*Note: I am using Android Studio Hedgehog | 2023.1.1 Patch 2 on Windows 11 ver 23H2

I'm faced with the same issue, I fixed this issue by moving Android folder from
C:\Users\User Name\AppData\Local
to any different folder (C:\Users) and in Android Studio Goto File -> Project Structure... and in SDK Location set new SDK location.

This problem seems to be originated with the Android Studio Windows version 4.1. I have the same exact problem and I went back to version 4.0.1. With the previous version Asset Studio clip art works fine. It also works fine the Android Studio version 4.1 for mac OS.

Update:

I found out why it isn't displaying the icons. For some reason when the Windows user name's folder has a space, it can't load the images and it only shows the message "Nothing to show". I had to change the folder name and eliminate the space in order to make it work.
