XAMARIN Visual Studio 2017 - Android Emulator Black Screen

Question

I've recently run into the problem of the Android Emulator not deploying and showing a black screen instead. I've been working on this problem for 24 hours now and I can't seem to fix it.

Even a blank Xamarin.Forms Project causes the Black Screen. I guess the path of the Android SDK might be wrong? (but I don't know how to fix it...)?

Answer 1

I got it resolved by running VS as administrator

Try it out.
