    Hello,​

    Welcome to our Microsoft Q&A platform!

    First of all, please just only one android emulator. Then open Android Adb Command Prompt like following screenshot.

    For example, I put a file to Desktop, then I want to copy this text file to sdcard, I used following command to execute it

       adb push C:\Users\xxxxusername\Desktop\Topic.txt  /mnt/sdcard/myfile.txt  
    

    Here is running screenshot.
