Within Visual Studio, click Debug > Start Without Debugging. This will bring up
a Select Device dialog; if no devices are listed, you can click the Start
emulator image link at the bottom of the Select Device dialog which will bring
up a Select Emulator dialog. Within the Select Emulator dialog, select an
emulator image, then click OK to return to the Select Device dialog. Wait a bit
for the emulator to finish booting, and the emulator name should appear within
the Select Device dialog, at which point you can select it and click OK to run
your app on the emulator.

Generally speaking you should prefer launching from Visual Studio. If you
prefer the command-line...

`emulator -avd` doesn't take a full path to the AVD name. It just takes a base
filename, which is a filename within (on your machine) C:\Documents and
Settings\samjad.NMS\.android\avd. The "avd" directory will contain files with a
.ini extension; your `emulator -avd` command-line will lack the .ini file
extension.
I would thus suggest:
emulator -avd "Run_Emulator(with Boot Animation)" -partition-size 512
This is assuming that you have the file:
C:\Documents and Settings\samjad.NMS\.android\avd\Run_Emulator(with
Boot Animation).ini
I'm willing to bet that you don't have such a file, in which case you'll need
to adjust the `-avd` parameter, or create such an image within the Android
Emulator Manager (Visual Studio: Tools > Start Android Emulator Manager).
