Development issue/problem:
When I launch an application on a virtual device (AVD) created with Android Studio (under Windows 10), I get an error message and panic.
Emulator: PANIC: I can’t find my way to the AVD system. Set the emulator ANDROID_SDK_ROOT
: Process completed with output code 1
While I have already defined my ANDROID_SDK_ROOT in the environment variables.
Can somebody tell me how to solve this problem?
How can I solve this problem?
Solution 1:
Open Android Studio and under Tools you will find the AVD Manager. Click on it and make sure you have a valid virtual device with the downloaded SDK (click on the Download button in the Actions column when it appears). Then make sure that the correct virtual device is selected in the toolbar.
Solution 2:
Set ANDROID_SDK_ROOT as the environment variable where your SDK is located. The default path is C: Program Files (x86) androidandroid-sdk and restart your computer to run it.
Solution 3:
In C:UsernameAppDataLocalAndroidsdk set your username as the computer name, and then restart your Android Studio. Then you can re-create your DSA when the error disappears and then start the virtual device.
Solution 4:
For those who come here with a Mac:
I had the same problem, and the problem was that I had created an emulator with a level 29 API, but had removed this SDK and installed 28 instead.
An emulator that could no longer be run.
So check in the AVD Manager if your emulator can actually work.
Solution No 5:
Check the C:UsersUser path. Change the name of the user folder (perhaps slightly different) from your alphabet to the English alphabet. Disclaimer : It’s a dangerous process, study it before you change it. Android Studio has no access to users of the AVD streamYour .android name.
Solution No 6:
Android studio image
Make sure you have selected the Android virtual device to produce the application. You can see on the picture I have placed in this message that I have chosen the Android Virtual Device Nexus 5 as my output device. After I did that, I erased the error.
Solution No 7:
My problem was solved by creating a Windows user without accents or special characters and reinstalling an android studio under this user. Another change is the change of the environmental variables:
Left-click My Computer > Advanced System Settings > Advanced > Environment Variables.
ANDROID_HOME = c:my_sdk_path
ANDROID_SDK_ROOT = c:my_sdk_path
JAVA_HOME = c:JavaudioJavaPath program files
- Standard SDK path c: usersyouruserAppDataLocalAndroidsdk
Adding values to the path variable :
%ANDROID_HOME% Platform tools
%ANDROID_HOME%tools
After making the changes, restart Windows and try again!
Solution No 8:
Create an environment variable like in the screenshot and make sure you replace the sdk-pad, in my case it was C:UserszeeshAppDataLocalAndroidsdk, replace zeesh with your username and make sure your android studio restarts to run it.
Solution No 9:
Try using the argument: -sysdir and see if you get an error message.

Look at this clip and you’ll know why:
// Plumbing control.if (avdName) {if (!isCpuArchSupportedByRanchu(avdArch))APANIC(CPU Architecture ‘%s’ not supported by QEMU2 emulator, (classic engine depreciated !),avdArch);}std::string systemPath = getAvdSystemPath(avdName, sysDir);if (systemPath.empty()) {const char* env = getenv(ANDROID_SDK_ROOT);if(!env | !env[0]) {APANIC(Cannot find AVD system path. Define ANDROID_SDK_ROOTn);} else {APANIC(Broken AVD system path. Check the value of ANDROID_SDK_ROOT [%s]! n,env);}} otherwise {APANIC(Broken AVD system path.
If you see an emulator: ERROR: The SDK installation folder cannot be found, please check this solution.
Error with the Android emulator: ERROR: The SDK installation folder cannot be found.
Solution No 10:
In the Korean version of Windows 10 this problem occurred because my Windows username was Korean instead of English. After rewriting the username in English the problem was solved.
Good luck!
