I searched here on StackOverflow and found many similar questions with many different answers, but none of them worked for me.

So,I was using the emulators from Android Studio very well on the last days until I tried to add a new Virtual Device with Google Play API, When I tried to run it this message appeared:

The emulator process for AVD <emulator_name> has terminated.

I tried many different things and also removed all emulators I had, but now not a single one that I create works

Here is the log I get in the Android Studio logs:

[1647414]   INFO - manager.EmulatorProcessHandler - Emulator: C:\Users\2DWeb\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\emulator\emulator.exe -netdelay none -netspeed full -no-snapstorage -avd cel_30_debug1

[1651665]   INFO - manager.EmulatorProcessHandler - Emulator: Process finished with exit code 0 

I even unninstalled Android Studio and deleted all related directories and installed it all again, didn't work.

Some important things:

  • Tried With or without Google Play API or Google APIs
  • Tried different SDK APIs (8.1 [API 27], 10 [API 29], 11 [API 30]...)
  • I have free space on HD: about 40gb
  • The emulator is setted to 16gb of internal storage
  • I tried x86 and x86_64 architecture (both was working two days ago)
  • Tried Quick Boot and Cold Boot
  • Tried to add a new emulator and don't change anything on the specs (using default)
  • The Android Emulator on SDK Tools is updated to latest version (31.1.4)
  • Installed the latest HAXM version (7.7.0)
  • I have an Intel processor (and as far as I know, no changes were made on it) and 12gb RAM

None of the above made the emulators work.

  • Hi, are you sure your CPU supports intel vtd-vtx ? Is it on? Have you tried to turn it on using cold boot? – Haddad Jan 17 '22 at 16:15
  • As you can read in the list of things I tried, in my question. I tried cold boot. Also, i didn't made any changes to my CPU, and last week it was wroking normally – Calvin Nunes Jan 17 '22 at 18:15

  • Do you have Windows Media Pack installed? on N variants of windows it's not installed by default. – alibttb Jul 02 '23 at 18:23

Go to your android studio, select “Tools” ->” SDK Manager” -> “SDK Tools” tab -> and update to the latest Android Emulator version. Then rerun your emulator again. Solved! Hope it helps.

  • To which version of emulator, because as you could read from my question, I did that and it was exactly what caused the problem... – Calvin Nunes Mar 03 '22 at 16:39
  • this worked for me. I updated the sdk tools too to the latest version – REM Code Mar 25 '22 at 10:41

    Yes, that worked. "Help" > "Check for updates" -- then install updates, restart was all it took. – Tom Mar 31 '22 at 11:30

As of May 2020, for Macbook M1 (Pro/Max) users who still struggle....

First, do not launch the emulator from Android Studio. It provides no information other than the unuseful "AVD has been killed or terminated" message.

Instead, type this.

~/Library/Android/sdk/tools/emulator 

it returns a more detailed message like below.

emulator: ERROR: process is translated under Rosetta. Attempting to replace emulator installation.
emulator: Replacing via command: /Users/<USER>/Library/Android/sdk/emulator/darwin-aarch64-replace.sh (downloading ~120 MB)...
sh: /Users/<USER>/Library/Android/sdk/emulator/darwin-aarch64-replace.sh: No such file or directory
emulator: Replacement done. Please relaunch the emulator. You will also need to be using an Apple Silicon-compatible system image. Check the release updates blog (https://androidstudio.googleblog.com/) for more details

So in my case darwin-aarch64-replace.sh is missing!

Download the file from here.

Problem solved.

I made it work...

Apparently, the Android Emulator updated to the latest version was the problem. Apparently many conflicts with vulkan.dll and other emulation process stopped working with this new version (at least for me in my computer).

I downloaded an old version of the android emulator based on this answer and then it started working again...

On Ubuntu, I had to uninstall NDK (side by side) using the SDK Manager

I got this when running my react native app, I manually installed NDK from the SDK manager.

With NDK we need to install the C make for it to work, this is how I solved this issue.

Read the docs for more info.

My case: Fixed this problem several times by Kumudika Jayantha's answer above.

But it does not work any more. You can use OmniDeskSweeper app on Mac to delete all Android caches and folders, then re-install Android studio. (Make sure delete all the old Android studio files and download new Android studio app from official site, 2 hours on this problem).

Another case: You can use OmniDeskSweeper to find and delete all *.lock files.

After trying all the solutions make sure the Disk space is available on your machine. An Emulator requires lots of disk space as it a system on its own.
