Solution

  • While going through logs found this.

    ERROR - ij.psi.stubs.StubUpdatingIndex - Error indexing:jar://C:/Users/user/AppData/Local/Android/Sdk/platforms/android-29/android.jar!/android/media/midi/MidiDevice.class 
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class name.kropp.intellij.makefile.psi.MakefileTypes

    @Andy you were right, deleting following folders fixed the issue.

    1. C:\Users\user.AndroidStudio4.0\config\plugins
    2. C:\Users\user.AndroidStudio4.0\config\cache

    Although on first start studio thrown an exception but on next restart every thing was fine
