Question

Waiting for another flutter command to release the startup lock

this messages and not proceed further.

Answer 1

This also happens when you have opened the flutter project in the Editor. Close the Editor and re-run the command

Answer 2

In my case, following command in Terminal helped (as suggested by Günter):

killall -9 dart

On Windows (as suggested by upupming):

taskkill /F /IM dart.exe

Answer 3

Remove this file:

<YOUR FLUTTER FOLDER>/bin/cache/lockfile

This releases the occupied lock and makes you able to run other commands.

Answer 4

try this instead For Window

TASKKILL //F //IM dart.exe

This worked!
