ADB manager error. Can't run any app

Since I updated my SDK in the SDK manager I'm getting the following error when trying to run an app:

ADB not responding. You can wait more, or kill "abd.exe" process manually and click 'Restart'

I haven't tried the suggested solution because I do not know how to kill the process through the comand prompt. Help please.

try killing adb, creating a new genymotion emulator(delete the old one) and restarting everything

If you are using windows kill the adb process in task manager and restart.

It does work but now it doesn't recognize the Genymotion emulator. Also if I restart Android Studio the same problem happens again and I have to shut it down through the task manager.
