Type on your console the following command : android
If it asks for you to install any packages go for it
Example:
If it says install packages(4) or (3) you install them all.
Also install these options:

After that go to the top of the android SDK Manager and go to :
and Manage ADV's. Make sure you create your emulator and start it.
Then try to run the following command: tns run android

Please note that android has been deprecated and may no longer be available. The UI android sdk manager from the first picture should also provide similar interface to download emulator images to initiate emulators with.

Don’t have the option Manage ADVs:

You need to have a project open in the editor to see the dropdown menu from the toolbar at the top of your screen. You know, like all the File, View, Help, etc… there’s also a Tools one.
