When I'm at the .xml in any view, design or text, a message appears at the emulator view saying "Rendering problems"

The message says that the class android.support.v7.internal.app.WindowsDecorActionBar could not be instantiated. It throws an exception java.lang.NoSuchMethodException

Check out this post on StackOverflow.

If none of those suggestions help, post some code here so we can better see what's going on: error log, main .xml file, main activity class, etc.

Thank you!! It was fixed with the update of the next version, maybe something was not installed in the past version.
