I Slove it by this step you should delete this file that you can do it .

go to the path :"C:\Users\Administrator.android\avd" and delete all the avd folders files .

try again ,you can get it.

Answer 2

It seems to be due to virtual devices that are already created are causing problems.

How I solved this issue:

1. Delete all folders from C:\Users\<userName>\.android\avd
2. Recreate virtual device from avd manager

Answer 3

I solved this error by opening the AVD Manager in Android Studio and uninstalling and reinstalling my emulators.

Answer 4

Why this happens

at  com.android.sdklib.internal.avd.AvdManager.parseAvdInfo(AvdManager.java:1616)

The error seems to be in Android SDK library Android Virtual Device Manager. It tries to open a file, and some argument in File constructor is null.

Solution:

I installed the needed plugins again..and it works

What else can be done in similar situations:

1. Plugin damaged -> reinstall the plugin.
2. SDK damaged -> reinstall Android SDK.
3. Wrong version used -> check the used version or update Android SDK.

Answer 5

It can be solved by editing build.gradle file and synch your project again. I edited following line classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.3.3' and it worked.
