Also, do you have ANDROID_HOME variable set in environment? You can check it by starting cmd.exe and typing set command there.
No, I changed the username ignore that one. I can’t see a ANDROID_HOME variable when I type the set command. Do you mean set inside the environment Path variable? It is not in there either.
Update: The problem seems to have been solved now. The problem was at my end. My cmd was infected with a “vmprotected cryptocurrency miner” virus which was causing the issues. I removed it from the registry and now reinstalled the simulator and it’s now working as expected.
I’m sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for your time @vlads.
