The Android Emulator Is Out of View, How to Move It

The Android emulator is out of view, how can I move it?

more exactly from your home directory

(on Linux: $HOME/ on Windows: C:\Users\<your user> )
go into

.android/avd/<image name>

open the file emulator-user.ini and set
window.x and window.y to 0.

window.x = 0
window.y = 0

If you don't see the hidden dir .android on Linux press Ctrl+H and from Windows select View>Options>View (Tab) and select "Show hidden files"

EDIT:

If the file emulator-user.ini doesn't exist, close the emulator window, then check the avd directory again. This is because emulator-user.ini is generated after the first run of the emulator.
