Failed to Launch Android Device Monitor

Every time I reformatted my machine and reinstall back Android Studio / Visual Studio. There are always some components in Android development tools are broken. It work perfectly previous, but now it doesn’t work on new freshly installed machine. It is always a new problem. This is annoying.

When I launch Android Device Monitor from Visual Studio 2017 or launch the android device monitor manually from executable. The following error pop up.

Failed to load the JNI shared library “C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_181\bin\..\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll”

Depend on your installed JDK version, the error message might be different.

Connecting Bluetooth Mouse in Windows 10 on Macbook Pro

Connecting a bluetooth mouse in Windows should be a fairly easy and strait forward thing. Thing can get complicated fast when Windows is running on Macbook / Mac device or you previously tried reformat the Windows running on Macbook / Mac device. You may find that your bluetooth mouse no longer able to connect to Windows after that.

If you face the same problem like bluetooth mouse keep on connect and disconnect in Windows running on Macbook, try reset the NVRAM on Macbook. It basically remove and “forget” all connected devices, so you can connect them again. This will make MacOS running on the same device forget the all bluetooth device as well. You will need to manually connect all again.

You might want to turn off energy saving on bluetooth mouse in Windows 10 as well to prevent it keep on disconnecting the mouse. So much trouble to just get a bluetooth mouse working as usual.

Actually I haven’t been playing the MouseHunt for a really long long time, maybe 2013. But many players messaged me that the bot I created so many years ago was broken now due to the latest changes. I’m really surprised. I though that the bot was broken many years ago and others has took up the responsibility and make a newer version to replace mine.
