Android Studio not launching or working after upgrading from Windows 10 to Windows 11

Question

I recently upgraded my computer from Windows 10 to Windows 11, and since then, Android Studio no longer works.

When I try to open it: Nothing happens at all - no error message, no IDE window.

I’ve already tried:

But none of these helped.

Has anyone faced this issue after upgrading to Windows 11? What could cause Android Studio not to start, and how can I fix it?

Check taskmanager if you see studio64.exe in details list after starting Android Studio. If you see it then it is stuck somewhere before showing the first UI element. Check graphic drivers of your system if you need to update them. YOu can also check Android Studio log file in C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Google\AndroidStudio<some version number>\log — Robert

I fixed the issue by running two commands in Command Prompt (as Administrator):

netsh winsock reset

ipconfig /flushdns

After this, Android Studio launched successfully on Windows 11.
