Xamarin failed to deploy app to emulator with: “Unexpected install output: cmd: Can't find service: package”

Question

I\'m building the sample intro xamarin forms app With Visual studio 2019 and the emulator boots up but the app doesn\'t deploy with the error Unexpected install outp

Answer 1

Last week I used My Device (red box in screenshot) without issue. This week I was getting:

Mono.AndroidTools.InstallFailedException: Unexpected install output: cmd: Can't find service: package

Tweaking Reza's answer I created a new emulator in the same project, My Device 2 (purple box in screenshot), and it works on that device.
