Hi , Which version of appium you are using ? Older versions may encounter this problem on Android 6.0 and above . J7 may be running on lower os version . They’ve fixed it in latest version . If you are already in latest appium then issue must be device specific .

Hi ,

Why don’t you install it form github, https://github.com/appium/appium

Current version is 1.6.5

Thanks for your answer !

Dont i need an exe file to install it ?

Nope , follow the steps given in site , It will download required files to your system , Use “where appium” (on windows )command to know file location

The Appium Desktop is an .exe file that you can download.
