Eclipse Fire Up New Android Instance Every Time You Clicks "run"

One of my computer has the issue with eclipse and android SDK. Every time I clicks 'Run' or 'Debug', then the eclipse will open up a new android instance instead of refresh the app

Solution 1:

I hate that you did all of that work, even re-installing the OS - the answer is fairly simple. If it ever happens again (and it will, I deal with it often), you need to kill the adb via command-line, close the emulator, close eclipse, restart eclipse, then edit the Run Configurations. Choose the config you use, click the Target tab and toggle the "Wipe User Data" checkbox to on. Then click apply and Run. Then just toggle it back off and apply. You're good to go.

Solution 2:

I had this error-message. What helped me is typing the command adb kill-server and then restarting Eclipse. Try it!
