None of the Genymotion Emulator are showing up under connected devices in Android Studio

Question

I have successfully installed Android Studio, it works really great thus far.

I have also downloaded Genymotion which came with virtual box, that works really great thus far as well.

In Genymotion , I added the file path from Android Studio Tools which I copied and paste from SDK Manager.

In Android Studio, as well, I added the path ( I believe the Default file path it is): C:\Program File\GenyMobile\Genymotion

I then started the device in Genymotion of my choice , the emulator showed up (This worked out great !)

Then I went to Android Studio (while the device in Genymotion status states booting) to run the program. The emulator from Genymotion didn't come up under connected devices ( ).

There is also a little pop up in the same window that says: " No USB Devices or running emulators detected "

The question here is:

Why is it that the emulator from Genymotion isn't showing under connected Devices)?? Is it that I did not install a specific Android Tool?

I am using an AMD machine - Windows 10 hence I downloaded and chose to work with Genymotion instead as the emulator in android studio, is taking very long to come and nothing really comes up on the screen.

Anyone's assistance is greatly needed, Thank you

Answer 1

The reason is, ADB does not connect with the Genymotion virtual device. That is a bug of Genymotion actually. So you have to manually do that. Refer this to do it manually. And also you will have to install the plugin for Android Studio as well. Refer this to install the plugin.

You can find the IP of the virtual device in the device's window.
