If any of the cases mentioned here didn't meet the expectations, there may be something wrong with your dnsapi.dll file in your windows which several software use (It happens in rare cases but give it a try).

Close Android Studio and try running a program(software) that uses this dnsapi.dll file. For ex. try running BitTorrent. If it says 'DNSapi.dll missing from your computer', then the studio error is most probably because of the corrupted/missing dll file.

Try running following command on your command prompt.(Make sure you have a good internet connection)

DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

And then run the system file checker.

sfc /scannow

It would take some time. Now run Android studio.
