Answer 1

I had the same issue, the problem was there is no enough space in my disk drive.

in the android studio Event layer section, you can see what happened

eg:Emulator: emulator: ERROR: Not enough space to create userdata partition. Available: 3310.363281 MB at /home/user/.android/avd/my_Nexus_5X_API_27.avd, need 7372.800000 MB."

Answer 2

Possible Solutions:

1. Wipe your emulator data from AVD manager and cold boot

2. Check the HAXM installer if you are using Intel(Hyper-v for AMD)

   Tools->SDK Manager->SDK Tools

3.Check if you have enough space for an emulator on your hard drive.

4.Go to Settings->Emulator-> choose Launch in Window

5.Delete and create another device.

Answer 3

you don't have enough space in your disk so if you can free up space in Windows you can launch the Run app by pressing Windows key with R or by searching for it.

After that type temp and click on OK button then a window will popup and delete everything in this folder by selecting them all and press Shift and Delete keys on the keyboard

now repeat the same steps but type %temp% instead of temp.

by doing this step you will free up space from 10GB to 20GB and maybe 30GB.

Answer 4

I had a similar problem and was able to solve it by disabling Vulkan support for AVDs.

Basically you just have to add the following line to the file C:\Users\YourName\.android\advancedFeatures.ini on Windows or ~/.android/advancedFeatures.ini on Linux and Mac:

Vulkan = off
