PANIC: Missing emulator engine program for 'x86' CPU.



Update ANDROID Emulator PATH


 If you are getting error PANIC: Missing emulator engine program for 'x86' CPU. means you need to update your emulator path.
You will get this error while running Android Emulator from its older location:
$/Users/userName/Library/Android/sdk/tools/emulator -avd avdName
PANIC: Missing emulator engine program for 'x86' CPU.

 Since 2017, Android Emulator has been released separately from Android SDK. Due to this change, the emulator binary was promoted from /tools/ to its own top-level directory /emulator/.

${ANDROID_ROOT}/emulator/
${ANDROID_ROOT} = /Users/userName/Library/Android/sdk
Android Virtual Device launches successfully from path
${ANDROID_ROOT}/emulator/emulator -avd avdName
emulator: INFO: boot completed

 You can set Android PATH in MAC from my previous post - How to set Android SDK PATH in Mac
