Answer 2

disable.android.first.run=true

Just open the file and press Ctrl+F and type run then you will find this run=false, change it to true.

Answer 3

Yet another reason why this can happen is when your time and date settings are not synchronized correctly. I installed android studio inside a virtual machine linux guest that didn't properly synchronize the time with the windows host and as a consequence the above message occured even though my internet connection was working fine.

Answer 4

1. Clear your DNS if there is any dns server settings like google, comodo, symantec etc.
2. Check your firewall settings if you are using tinywall, zonealarm etc.

If your computer and network connection doesn't have any dns settings and firewall; then check your internet connection maybe there is an update process to slowing down your internet speed. So if there is a process stop or wait for it. And try again. Good luck...

Answer 5

I clicked Cancel at this screen and process of setup continued. I saw it on Linux after copying android studio folder from one PC to another. By the way, I started studio not connected to Internet cause I try to be able to work offline.
