Try these solutions in order, as they progress from simple to more complex fixes:

1. GPU Configuration Fix

# Run emulator with GPU off
cd %ANDROID_HOME%/emulator
./emulator -gpu off -avd YOUR_AVD_NAME

Or modify the AVD configuration:

  1. Open AVD Manager
  2. Click 'Edit' (pencil icon) for your AVD
  3. Show Advanced Settings
  4. Under Emulated Performance:
    • Graphics: Select 'Software - GLES 2.0'
    • Change 'Enable GPU acceleration' to off

2. Update Graphics Drivers

  1. Install/Update GPU drivers
  2. For NVIDIA users:
    Control Panel → 3D Settings → Program Settings
    Add Android Emulator and set:
    - OpenGL rendering: Force software
    - Power management: Prefer maximum performance
    

3. Fix Environment Variables

# Add these to System Variables
ANDROID_HOME=C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk
JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Microsoft\jdk-17.0.8.7-hotspot\
Path=%Path%;%ANDROID_HOME%\tools;%ANDROID_HOME%\platform-tools;%ANDROID_HOME%\emulator

4. Clear AVD Data and Cache

# Windows PowerShell commands
Remove-Item -Recurse -Force "${env:USERPROFILE}\.android\avd\*"
Remove-Item -Recurse -Force "${env:LOCALAPPDATA}\Android\Sdk\system-images\*"

# Reinstall system images
sdkmanager --install "system-images;android-30;google_apis_playstore;x86"

5. Create New AVD with Specific Settings

# Create AVD via command line with optimal settings
avdmanager create avd -n "Pixel_3a_API_30" \
    -k "system-images;android-30;google_apis_playstore;x86" \
    -d "pixel_3a" \
    --force

# Edit config.ini
notepad %USERPROFILE%\.android\avd\Pixel_3a_API_30.avd\config.ini

Add these lines to config.ini:

hw.gpu.enabled=yes
hw.gpu.mode=off
disk.dataPartition.size=6442450944

6. Modify Studio Configuration

Edit studio64.exe.vmoptions:

# Location: %APPDATA%\Google\AndroidStudio[version]\studio64.exe.vmoptions
-Xmx2048m
-XX:MaxPermSize=512m
-XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize=240m
-XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC
-XX:SoftRefLRUPolicyMSPerMB=50
-ea
-Dsun.io.useCanonCaches=false
-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
-Djdk.http.auth.tunneling.disabledSchemes=""
-XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError
-XX:-OmitStackTraceInFastThrow

Advanced Solutions

# Uninstall existing HAXM
cd %ANDROID_HOME%\extras\intel\Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager
silent_install.bat -u

# Download latest HAXM
# Install with custom settings
silent_install.bat -log -m 2048

2. Windows Hypervisor Fix

# PowerShell (Admin)
# Enable Hyper-V
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V-All

# OR Disable if using HAXM
Disable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V-All

3. Vulkan Support Check

# Check Vulkan installation
Get-ChildItem -Path C:\Windows\System32\vulkan* -File
Get-ChildItem -Path C:\Windows\SysWOW64\vulkan* -File

If missing:

  1. Download Vulkan SDK
  2. Install Graphics drivers with Vulkan support
  3. Add to PATH:
C:\VulkanSDK\[version]\Bin

Prevention Tips

  1. Regular Maintenance
# Clean Android Studio
File → Invalidate Caches / Restart

# Update SDK Tools
sdkmanager --update
  1. Performance Settings
<!-- In gradle.properties -->
org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx2048m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m
org.gradle.parallel=true
org.gradle.daemon=true
  1. Monitoring
# Check emulator process
tasklist | findstr "qemu"
# Monitor GPU usage
nvidia-smi -l 1

Troubleshooting Steps

If issues persist:

  1. Check System Requirements
# PowerShell
systeminfo | Select-String "Total Physical Memory","Processor","OS Name"
  1. Verify Virtualization
# Command Prompt (Admin)
systeminfo | findstr /i "Virtualization"
  1. Log Analysis
# Check emulator logs
type %USERPROFILE%\.android\avd\*.log
  1. Clean Installation
# Remove Android Studio completely
Remove-Item -Recurse -Force "${env:LOCALAPPDATA}\Google\AndroidStudio*"
Remove-Item -Recurse -Force "${env:APPDATA}\Google\AndroidStudio*"
