Error:Unable to obtain debug bridge in android studio

Question

After updating Android Studio to 2.0 l am getting this error unable to obtain debug bridge and Android Device Monitor does not open. Anyone faced this error before?

Solution 1

I just open sdk manager and installed all android sdk tools and done.

Solution 2

Check whether you need to install "Android Sdk Platform Tools" in the Android SDK Manager.

Somehow, after installing Android Studio from the bundle (for Linux) I lacked the "platform-tools" directory in "Android/Sdk", where the adb executable resides. Installing the platform tools helped. It was easier to find in the standalone sdk manager.

Solution 3

This is because you deleted the adb.exe (it might be your antivirus who deleted it),that resided in the platform tools in the android sdk folder.

What you need to do is to delete the current platform-tools in the sdk manager program and re install it all over again.

Solution 4

I installed the right sdk version that matched my virtual device android version
