I've seen this question asked in reverse but:
I'm an Android developer on a Windows machine with a Google Pixel 1. I want to use adb to debug my code on it, but whenever adb starts it launches an emulator
List of devices attached
FA6A40303383 device
emulator-5562 offline # I don't want this to start!
I can understand why someone would want this, but I under no circumstance want this emulator to launch. This is so adb automatically uses my phone instead of asking me to specify the device/emulator.
I installed the SDK using NVidia's CodeWorks for Android (1R7) - I did have Android Studio installed at one point, but I uninstalled it (and removed all User/.android* directories) and did a complete uninstall / reinstall of Codeworks for Android, but the emulator still starts.
I'm not used to seeing it there and it's kind of messing with my workflow - is there a way to prevent it from starting?
