Why is Android Studio v3.0.1 not running after installing successfully?

Question

I have installed Android Studio using the /NCRC tag by running the downloaded executable from the Command Prompt. The installation was successful.

However, when I run it for the first time, I get an error (0xc0000020) studio64.exe - Bad Image Error

When, I click Ok I get the following Dialog Box: Error Launching Studio

Now, the following things I tried:

1. Initially I had JDK v9 installed, I uninstalled that and then installed JDK v8 and reset all the Environmental Variables.

2. I have set the JAVA_HOME , JDK_HOME Environment Variables. I have also included the path to the jdk , jre , jdk/bin , jre/bin folders.

3. I have downloaded Android Studio multiple times using Firefox , Ninja Downloader and also Microsoft Edge , yet the problem persists.

4. I have restarted multiple times.

5. Upon receiving the first error:

studio64.exe - Bad Image Error

I did the following things:

• Copied jvm.dll from "...\Java\jre1.8.0_151\bin\server\" to "C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\jre\jre\bin\server" Then, I re-ran Android Studio again. I got errors:

Error-3 Error-4

• Similarly, I kept on adding the dll files from the "...\Java\jre1.8.0_151\bin\" folder into "C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\jre\jre\bin\" as per the errors that
  were shown.

Error-5

Once all these steps were done, no further errors arose. However, Android Studio does not run anymore now.

Is there any solution I can try to install and run Android Studio v3.0.1 ??

Answer 1

my understanding is JAVA_HOME variable shall read JDK folder. I'm meeting different problem; after Windows Update, Android Studio stopped to work giving error -6, failed to create JVM. I've installed the JDK and added all of the necessary Environment variables, but not able to solve it!

Answer 2

I deleted all the temporary files, rebooted my PC, removed old downloads of Android Studio, re-downloaded using Edge and installed. This time it went off without a hitch. The same process did not work previously, yet, it worked now. Android Studio is successfully installed now and is running smoothly.

I have no clue as to what the exact problem was, but I think that the download was getting corrupted previously. Right now, the download wasn't getting corrupted and hence everything went smoothly. I did not need to set the NCRC flag to install either.
