“adb.exe has stopped working” error in android studio 4

Question

I am using Windows 7 Professional 32 bit os on my Laptop. I have downloaded Android Studio 4. When I open the android studio, I get an error in every two seconds " adb.exe has stopped working ".

I have browsed other SO questions and I tried all the suggestions but I am still getting the same error.

What I have tried:

1. Downloading api-ms-win-crt-locale-l1-1-0.dll from https://www.sts-tutorial.com/sites/downloadCenter.php?api-ms-win-crt-locale-l1-1-0 and pasting the DLL file to C:\Windows\System32 .

2. Typing taskkill /f /im adb.exe in command prompt.

3. Replacing the "platform-tools" folder with the new one downloaded from http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools_r28.0.2-windows.zip

Even after trying the above-mentioned things, I am continuously getting the error.

Please suggest what can I do.

Also, I am getting an error in the console that " daemon is not running ". Suggestions on this problem are also welcome.
