Are you using Unity 3.1? It should notice you about the incompatibility with device filter set to ARMv7; the emulator requires the experimental/universal device filter.

I believe he fixed it by setting the device filter to the “emulator only” setting.

Thanks a lot. I’ve been struggling with this issue for 72h hours… What a relief.

I got the same error on BlueStacks, it is because of incompatible Windows version, download this apk and install it: http://cdn.bluestacks.com/downloads/PackageFileInvalidIssueResolver.apk and you’re done.

Unity 3.8 is quite old, can you update to a more recent version?
