Increase the new command time out in the appium GUI settings and then try.Try to close other applications as well as it is taking too much time to launch the simulator.

Hi Swathi, Thanks for ur quick reply, i did the same you mentioned but still the same issue occurred.

Maybe you could start an Android emulator manually and check if it is the launching problem?
