Android Studio Setup Wizard Stuck on Downloading Components

Uninstall Android Studio and clean all the junk files, then reinstall it should fix that!

First, Run "Control Panel" ⇒ "Programs and Features" ⇒ Uninstall "Android Studio"

Then make sure to delete any of these files if exist:

  • C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk (this directory contains the SDK).
  • C:\Users\username\.android
  • C:\Users\username\.AndroidStudioX.X
  • C:\Users\username\.gradle
  • C:\Users\username\AndroidStudioProjects (these are the Android projects written by you)

You can download the latest components manually.

  1. Go to C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Android\sdk
  2. Open SDK Manager.exe
  3. Update the packages.
  4. Start Android Studio.

Solution for now was to use an older stable version. 1.0.2 worked fine.
