I am adding this answer because I think this will be helpful to future visitors.

I ran into the same problem, and managed to solve it. However, My solution is different from the one already mentioned.

First of all, the monitor.ini file is in C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\tools\lib\monitor-x86_64 and config.ini file is in ./configuration folder

When I checked log file it said (at the very end of file) :

java.io.IOException: The folder "C:\Users\.android\monitor-workspace.metadata" is read-only.

So I ran the monitor.exe as Administrator and it worked fine.

Next I ran Android Studio as Admin and the ADM button worked fine.
