It's usually because of avast Antivirus. Check avast quarantine file

restored emulator-arm from quarantine, added it to avast exception, paused Avast, run AVD, then resumed Avast

solution for me was to replace emulator command with $ANDROID_HOME/emulator/emulator. this is for Mac, but for windows you need to adapt.
