Not able to create new device in Android emulator VS 2019

897 views Asked by At

I am new to the Xamarin development following the Microsoft getting started docs.

In the Android Device Manager I am seeing blank when I click New Device.

Android Device manager is empty

Can any one please tell me how to fix this issue.

Edit : Adding more images of the settings and SDK for reference.

VS2019 Xamarin Options

Android SDK platform section

Android SDK tools section

Note : Added Hyper-V and installed Google API's from the SDK checked the path, everything looks correct.

You should change Base Device, Processor and OS on the left menu first.

Please recheck if you have installed the android sdk correctly. Visual Studio includes an Android SDK Manager that you use to download Android SDK tools, platforms, and other components that you need for developing Xamarin.Android apps.

For this, you can check the official document Setting up the Android SDK for Xamarin.Android . This guide explains how to use the Xamarin Android SDK Manager in Visual Studio and Visual Studio for Mac.
