Android Studio does not start: could not find or load the main class com.intellij.idea.Main

Question

Being new to Android devopmnet, I use Android Studio for development, but suddenly it no longer works.

The program no longer starts, and if I run studio.bat from the command line, I get the following error:

Error: could not find or load the main class com.intellij.idea.Main

I saw other reports that Android Studio does not start (for example, this and this ), but none of them solve my problem. I set PATH variables for JAVA_HOME and JDK_HOME correctly C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_07

As I mentioned, Android Studio worked, and I don’t know why it stopped working. Any clue?

Answer 1

For android studio 1.3.1 go to the environment variable and create a new variable and give it the name JAVA_HOME and use this C: \ Progra ~ 1 \ Java \ jdk1.7.0_71 on the way . Hope this helps you.

Answer 2

Having JAVA_HOME installed to install the latest JDK (C: \ Program Files \ Java \ jdk1.7.0_79) will make Android Studio work. Make sure the path is correct. It seems that JDK_HOME is not needed. Installation Studio Android can refer (does not work)

Answer 3

If you just used a copy of a copy of the exe file, it will display this message, so go to Program Files \ Android \ Android Studio \ bin and click on the exe file.

Answer 4

If you recently uninstalled and reinstalled Android Studio and previously attached the Android Studio icon to the taskbar or Start menu, this icon may no longer be looking for a new installation. Delete it and drag it, and everything will be fine.

Answer 5

I found the answer: you are simply mistaken for shortcut (just ctrl + C ctrl + v ) for the startup file (exe). You must make a shortcut by following this method:

Right-click and select the context menu.
