Try update your SDK Tools items, and then delete all currently created emulator and recreate again. it works for me

Answer 3

This might sound normal but I was getting the same error but just updated it and it worked now without any error. I suggests anyone to try for updates first.

Answer 4

(You mentioned you are new to Android Studio) so I recommend pressing the Android Studio > Help > Check for updates... button that will update your environment.

Answer 5

I faced the same issue, and I tried following things, which didn't work:

1. Deleting the existing AVD and creating a new one.

2. Uninstall latest-existing and older versions (if you have) of SDK-Tools and SDK-Build-Tools and installing new ones.

What worked for me was uninstalling and re-installing latest PLATFORM-TOOLS, where adb actually resides.

Answer 6

First you need to check which SDK your Emulator is using and as @kuya suggested you need to follow those steps and install the latest version of that SDK Build Tool. Suppose your Emulator uses SDK 27 then you need to install latest in that series. For me it was 27.0.3. After that the error was gone.
