title: How to change Android emulator path in Visual Studio 2017
body: <p>I've been trying to develop a mobile app in visual studio 2017 with Xamarin. Everything was going fine until I noticed a message in the output window that my Android emulator is out of date. I followed the instructions to update and now I can't debug.  I get the following messages in the output window:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Emulator Android_Accelerated_x86_Oreo cannot be started</li>
  <li>PANIC: Missing emulator engine program for x86 cpu</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>I read somewhere that, in the new version, the emulator path changes from C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\tools\emulator.EXE to C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\emulator\emulator.EXE. I cannot find an option to inform visual studio of the new path.  Nor can I get the Xamarin Live Player to pair with my phone. Any help would be appreciated</p>
