failed to create jvm error code 4 android studio

Question

I was just updated my last Android Studio and got this error:

failed to create jvm error code -4 JVM Path: C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk1.7.0_45\\jre

Answer 1

All I had to do was run android studio as an administrator. Just right click on the icon on your desktop (do not try to do it with a shortcut pinned to your taskbar) and click run as administrator.

Answer 2

just updating my JDK worked for me! :D If it still doesn't work, try updating Android Studio.

Answer 3

I have rechecked the java path but its not working in my case. So I deleted the Android Studio settings folder in my user folder.

C:\Users\my_username.AndroidStudio

Then re-open Android Studio then everything work fine for me.

In some case is in C:/Users/my_username/.AndroidStudio3.0/studio64.vmoptions.

Answer 4

Go to

C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\bin\studio64.exe.vmoptions

Delete studio64.exe.vmoptions file

That's what worked for me

Answer 5

Go to C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\bin\studio.exe.vmoptions

Open it with notepad. some times it will not be editable so give administrative permission and change the following attributes:

-Xmx512m to -Xmx256m

-XX:MaxPermSize=250m to -XX:MaxPermSize=128m

Or change:

-Xmx750m to -Xmx512m

-XX:MaxPermSize=350m to -XX:MaxPermSize=250m

Answer 6

For Android Studio 4+ You need to remove «\studio.exe.vmoptions» or «studio64.exe.vmoptions» Here is the path

C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Google\{studio version}
