In my case, cold reboot resolves the issue on an OSX machine.

Close all open emulator first
Open android studio configure > avd manager
from the virtual device you are working on action > cold boot now

Hope the interface will be almost similar to Linux and Windows machine and the fix will workout there too.

I even added cold boot as default by going to edit of a particular avd -> Advanced Options -> Cold boot as default – thehellmaker Feb 22 '21 at 04:17

I found some solutions in this page : Error Message: emulator-arm.exe has stopped working

In this page suggests changing of resolution and RAM and you should decrease them. When I decrease my resolution It fixes this problem .

Try to use a low-resolution device, when I selected Nexus 4 it kept running smoothly with me. If it doesn't work. try this:

If you want to have graphics acceleration enabled by default for this AVD, in the Hardware section of the AVD configuration, click New, select GPU emulation and set the value to Yes.

Beyond other possible solutions, what worked to me was to change the "Emulated performance" option to "Software".

I have tried changing the resolution, RAM size, Emulated performance graphic type, etc.. but none of them worked. Finally, I found that the android version image was my problem(Android P) so I downloaded a different version image and it worked fine

If the virtual device was previously working, try to wipe user data. Go to the AVD manager, select the virtual device action and click on "Wipe data" (Wipe the user data of this AVD)

Here is how I fixed it:

In the AVD Manage-> Create Virtual Device... -> New Hardware Profile

Device Name: My Device
Resolution 800 x 600
RAM: 512 MB
Left other options as default -> Finish Next -> Next (Or select API e.g R) -> Finish

That device never throws that error and works faster.

You can try doing cold reboot from Android Studio. It'll work normally then. I guess it usually happens when your PC/laptop goes into sleep mode, with emulator, debugger running in the background.
