Not launching Monodroid app (Xamarin)?

Question

Android

Installed Xamarin. I launched the studio, chose a ready-made template "Android Application".
I'm trying to start the application: I
start the Android emulator, then I select it in the list of running ones, and I get the error
Deploy Error System.NullReferenceException: The object reference does not point to an object instance.
in Mono.VisualStudio.Extension.StatusBarHelper.get_IsFrozen()
in Mono.VisualStudio.Extension.StatusBarHelper.SetText(String text)
in Mono.Android.VisualStudio.MonoAndroidDeploySession.ShowProgressText(String text, CancellationToken token)
in Mono.Android.VisualStudio. MonoAndroidDeploySession.BuildAndSignPackage(CancellationToken token)
in Mono.Android.VisualStudio.MonoAndroidDeploySession.DeployApplication(AndroidDevice device, CancellationToken token)
in Mono.Android.VisualStudio.MonoAndroidDeploySession.OnDeploy()
The solution to the problem was not googled. Who knows what's causing the problem?

Answer 1

The emulator starts in Xamarin Studio. I select it in the list of running ones, but the application does not appear in it.

Answer 2

A little off topic - can you work with the studio in the free version?

Can.
