Answer 1

There are so many answer but i just extending to give answer of this question. What happen is when i follow Android Studio instruction and try to delete that folder Or file but i am not able to delete it, So what am i do is that i open the AVD Manager and click on down arrow which is on right side as you can see in below screenshot and click on stop after click on start and its working fine. There is no need to restart or recreate the AVD.
