First of all try shuting down the Appium Server or Appium Desktop as they might share the same ADB connection and cause malfunction of the software which relies on the connection. When you finish taking screenshots or inspecting UI hierarchy - start Appium again.
Consider using alternative tool like
- Android Device Monitor (lives under tools folder of your Android SDK distribution)
- Layout Inspector
- Appium Studio
