(SOLVED) Virtual Device failed to load

EDIT: SOLVED. Had to move the Android studio folder to the same folder as my SDK

So first I got the error with HAXM so I decided to try to use arm when creating a virtual device.

But when I create my device in AVD and select an arm version and the device is created it says "failed to load" under the actions tabs in AVD.

When I chose view details it says:

Name: Nexus_5_API_22

CPU/ABI: Google APIs ARM (armeabi-v7a)

Path: C:\Users\Alex.android\avd\Nexus_5_API_22.avd

Error: Unknown target 'Google Inc.:Google APIs:22' in C:\Users\Alex.android\avd\Nexus_5_API_22.ini

What is wrong?

Hey, thanks for posting this! I was having the same problem, and this fixed it. That being said, its rather inconvenient to keep my Projects folder in the SDK's folder rather than my home directory. Oh, well....
