To resolve this, ensure that:
- Android Studio is correctly installed on your system.
- Flutter is added to your system’s PATH.
- The Flutter plugin is installed in Android Studio.
- You run
flutter config --android-studio-dir=<path>to manually set the Android Studio path if necessary.
Additionally, make sure that the flutter doctor tool has access to the required SDK and IDE paths. Sometimes, installing Android Studio via a different user account or using a custom install directory can prevent automatic detection.
If you’ve confirmed Android Studio is installed but still get the error, try restarting your system or reinstalling Flutter and Android Studio with the latest stable versions. Visit Flutter’s official installation guide for detailed setup instructions.
By addressing path issues and plugin installation, you can successfully resolve this error and proceed with Flutter development.
