androidtcpcmdport

close a port in cmd

I need to use port 5037 under windows for adb (android).

When I type:

G:\AndroidSDK\platform-tools>adb nodaemon server

It gives:

cannot bind 'tcp:5037'

This means that port 5037 is currently occupied...

When I type:

C:\WINDOWS\System32>netstat -ano | findstr "5037"

It gives: 

TCP    127.0.0.1:5037         0.0.0.0:0              LISTENING       16836

What should I do to clear port 5037?

Solution

  • Type "tasklist" in cmd console to find which process occupy port 5037, then go to task manager to kill such process.
