Android Studio - No JVM Installation found

I reproduced your issue on my Windows 8.1 system :

  1. Installed 64-bit JDK 1.8.0_11.
  2. Installed latest Android Studio Bundle.
  3. Went to Control Panel -> System -> Advanced system settings -> Environment Variables...
  4. Added JDK_HOME pointing to my 64-bit JDK.
  5. Launched studio64.exe

I got the same message you did. Thinking that it might be the environment variable, I did the following :

  1. Went to Control Panel -> System -> Advanced system settings -> Environment Variables...
  2. Changed the name of JDK_HOME to JAVA_HOME.
  3. Launched studio64.exe

It came up successfully !


I had the same problem. I tried setting all kind of paths but nothing worked. So I had to do some dirty fix. The only problem with this is that it opens a blank command line window.

I did the following to make it work.

  • goto the AndroidStudio installation folder.
  • goto bin folder and open studio.bat in text editor
  • add set JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java2\jdk1.8.0//your java path after the ECHO line.
  • goto Start -> All Programmes -> Android Studio ->
  • right click on Android Studio and click on properties.
  • You will see the Target something like <installation path>android-studio\bin\studio64.exe
  • change it to <installation path>android-studio\bin\studio.bat

Now you can access it by clicking it from the menu.

Note : I tried it with 8, It works.
