I just got done installing Android studio and trying to take it for a test run. When I try to run my app I get the following error message

emulator: ERROR: This AVD's configuration is missing a kernel file!!
emulator: ERROR: ANDROID_SDK_ROOT is undefined

Does anybody know how to fix this????

It is possible that you really have no system images. Double-check that $ANDROID_HOME/system-images/android-<YOUR DESIRED API>/armeabi-v7a exists and is not empty. If they really are missing - install/reinstall with SDK manager.
