Android Studio : emulator is already running

Question

I am trying to run emulator on my android studio 8.14. When I click run it says it is already running. Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

Or you can type a command in terminal as

1.killall Finder and then type,

2.defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles true it shows hidden .android folder

Open .android folder and delete .android/avd/Nexus_5X_API_26.avd/*.lock file and now you run emulator it works fine.
