Android Studio does not have write access
I would suggest to set your current user as owner of /usr/bin/android-studio
This will resolve the issue in long term:
sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /usr/bin/android-studio
Navigate to your Android studio folder via terminal then run android studio with administrator privileges, using sudo or su. If you provide more information, like which OS you are using, maybe I'll be able to tell you the exactly command line you should use.
Edit:
Open terminal application, then type de following :
cd ~/android-studio/bin*Now we must run Android Studio script file studio.sh as administrator:
sudo ./studio.sh
If doesn't work try : sudo sh studio.sh
- (Optional) To prevent this problem every time you want update android studio, see https://stackoverflow.com/a/37704528/8513494
And is it.
- I'm assuming that your android studio is located on your user folder, if there's a problem with this step, you should check
/opt/directory and look out for android studio installation folder or see https://superuser.com/a/1080329
I would suggest setting up your current user as the owner of Android Studio
Linux
sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /usr/bin/android-studio
Mac
sudo chown -R $USER /Applications/Android\ Studio.app
or if you using android studio portable then you can use custom path like this.
sudo chown -R $USER: pathDirOfYourAndroidStudio/Android\ Studio\ Preview.app
