Go to your Android Studio Folder Where it is installed. There is File stduio.exe and studio64.exe with file type of VMOPTIONS, open it in notepad you will see Something like this:

-Xms512m
-Xmx1280m
-XX:MaxPermSize=350m
-XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize=225m
-XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC
-XX:SoftRefLRUPolicyMSPerMB=50
-ea
-Djna.nosys=true
-Djna.boot.library.path=

-Djna.debug_load=true
-Djna.debug_load.jna=true
-Dsun.io.useCanonCaches=false
-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
-Didea.paths.selector=AndroidStudio1.3
-Didea.platform.prefix=AndroidStudio

According to error you may need to change 2 values in it.

-Xms512m
-Xmx1280m

check this value and change it.

I met this problem when I upgraded my system to win10

Answer 5

On Windows 7, what worked for me was to point the Android Studio JDK location to where the system JDK (latest) was located.

In the following images, I've marked in red the bits that should be the same.

Android Studio project, File > Project Structure > SDK Location > JDK Location:

Command line, java -version:

Answer 6

I had the same problem as you had. But now I have solve it just Updating my JDK version 1.7 to 1.8. Now it’s working fine for me. And configure the Environment Variable with JAVA_HOME and Android Studio ->Project Structure->SDK Location=>JDK Location.
