Answer 1

The Impeller needs Vulkan support. If you want to run the app with the impeller on the emulator, your PC needs Vulkan support. More specifically, your GPU needs that. So you need to check if your GPU supports Vulkan. If it doesn't support Vulkan, you need to disable impeller when you run the app on the emulator.

flutter run --no-enable-impeller

This is the official doc from Flutter about impeller. https://docs.flutter.dev/perf/impeller

Update:

This is fixed with Flutter version 3.29.0
