After installing Android studio， I can't start it. There is no response any more after click it's icon.I open the bat file named “studio.bat” in "C:\Program Files\Android\android-studio\bin"，run it in cmd window, I found that:

C:\Documents and Settings\mtk81346>"C:\Program Files\Android\android-studio\bin\studio.bat"

C:\Documents and Settings\mtk81346>IF EXIST "" SET JDK=

C:\Documents and Settings\mtk81346>IF NOT "" == "" GOTO jdk

C:\Documents and Settings\mtk81346>IF EXIST "C:\Program Files\Android\android-st**udio\bin\\..\jre**" SET JDK=

    C:\Program Files\Android\android-studio\bin\
    \..\jre

C:\Documents and Settings\mtk81346>IF NOT "" == "" GOTO jdk

Add the environment variable JAVA_HOME to the latest jdk path.

where do I set this variable? – Alexander Suraphel Oct 21 '13 at 12:02
what OS are you using? – Larry McKenzie Oct 21 '13 at 21:57
I'm on Ubuntu 12.04. I've set it on .bashrc but the problem still persists. My Java is open-jdk. I'm not sure if that is the problem... – Alexander Suraphel Oct 22 '13 at 08:04

Make sure you have JDK_HOME or JAVA_HOME System Variable set to the path of the JDK.

Secondly, I had an issue using an older version of the JDK (1.6.x). When I upgraded to 1.7.x, and modified the System Variable JAVA_HOME to that path (didn't include /bin), I was able to get Android Studio running.

I just had the same issue. Starting the bat in a cmd gave me Unrecognized VM option '+UseCodeCacheFlushing'. I then removed that one from the file studio.exe.vmoptions in the bin folder of the studio installation and it started right away.

Go to your system variables, and simply remove the "/bin" from JAVA_HOME or JDK_HOME, this worked for me.

i think it depends if your java files has been moved to other location and now are not inside the folder /bin, the default folder.. – Jorgesys May 26 '15 at 23:33
