Try this solution it worked for me:

Download the latest swt.jar, from https://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/index.html , rename downloaded swt.jar to swt2.jar, copy to Android/sdk/tools/lib/x86_64/ and to Android/sdk/tools/lib/x86 and run uiaautomatorviewer.

Answer 2

Change swt.jar file in Android/sdk/tools/lib/x86_64/ and tAndroid/sdk/tools/lib/x86. Download swt.jar file of version 4.20 only.Other versions don't work.
