When I start Android Studio I am facing this error.
It was working properly until today. But Today I searched for speeding up Android Studio and applying 2nd option of this solution and after that android studio starts throwing this error. I searched a lot but couldn’t find the proper solution. I also check JAVA_HOME path and my JDK is also 64 bit. Even I also tried by reinstall android studio again but the error continues.
I am using windows 10, 64 bit Operating System.
How can I solve this error?

I was facing the same error, shortly after selecting Help > Edit Custom JVM Options
from my Android Studio menu. Soon as I did that, I wasn’t able to restart into my Android studio, citing above error. I tried many options suggested all over, setting JAVA_HOME
and whatnot but none worked.
What finally worked was going to <HOME FOLDER>/.AndroidStudio2.2/
and deleting the file studio64
. For Windows users the file should be studio64.exe
(see below). Please note my Android studio version at the time of writing was 2.2.3
, so the Folder/directory to navigate to was based on the major version i.e 2.2
. Depending on your Android studio version, the directory to find the file above may be different. Hope this saves someoene some valuable time.
For windows PC:
Add jdk location to system environments as
JAVA_HOME
Delete file from location:
C:UsersUSERNAME.AndroidStudio2.3studio64.exe
