I played around in uiautomatorviewer with the most left and most right button, if I can save something here

It seams I was able to specify a file here, but now it disclaims about a missing file

in stacktrace I see

$ uiautomatorviewer

One of the two will be used. Which one is undefined.

null rootnode after parsing.

The question is:
How can I get rid of this wrong allow.uix file ?
uiautomatorviewer is no more usable now, I want simply start without this file usage.

Btw, this doesn't help

sudo adb kill-server

sudo adb start-server

After investigation a lot (included the source code at
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/testing/+/aecdc4a/uiautomator/utils/uiautomatorviewer/src/com/android/uiautomator)

A simple reboot made it work again !
