Answer 2

If you added some custom vmoptions then you can simply edit them with proper versions or better delete them.

go to C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Google\AndroidStudiox.x

and spot the file named

studio64.exe.vmoptions

If you know how to edit it correctly which depends on the version of Android Studio, JDK and other aspects then edit it, in my case I just deleted it.

Restart your Android Studio.
