What I did was   set a new environment variable in the top user section    VARIABLE NAME  JAVA HOME VARIABLE VALUE  set it to the installation directory of your most recent JDK    For me it was  C  Program Files Java jdk1 7 0 13   Run SDK Manager as administrator at least once  I use windows 7  This method worked for me after a lot of research    What I dont understand is when using  where java  in the command prompt it still references C  Windows System32 java exe  My SDK Manager now opens when I need it so I solved my problem

I was getting the error  C  Program is not recognized as an internal or external command  Followed by loads of  unable to copy file  Followed by something about Android SWT not being able to be found   The way I fixed the problem on my system  Windows 8  64 bit  JDK 7  was    Create JAVA HOME environment variable and point it to C  Program Files Java jdk1 7 0 10 bin Open ANDROID SDK DIRECTORY tools android bat in your favorite text editor Find the lines set java exe  call lib find java bat  it s split over 2 lines  Replace the lines with set java exe   JAVA HOME  java exe  Save and run tools android bat   The problem was that the the space in the path was not being handled correctly  By wrapping the path in quotation marks  the space is then correctly catered for

I was experiencing the UnsatisfiedLinkError on Windows 7 64-bit after installing adt-bundle-windows-x86 64-20130717 zip    Exception in thread  main  java lang UnsatisfiedLinkError  no swt-win32-3550 or swt-win32 in swt library path  java library path or the jar file   The root cause was that McAfee has a feature that blocks loading DLL s from the temporary directory   This is a problem because android bat copies a bunch of JAR and DLL files to a temporary directory and runs the program from there  to make it easy to upgrade the app in-place   This feature can be disabled  however   You can either disable  Access Protection  altogether or only disable the feature that blocks loading DLLs from temporary folders

I solved this problem  which occured for me after manually installing the ADT  4 2 api 17  bundle on Windows 7 64 bit in C  Program Files   The steps I had to take    Set the JAVA HOME environment variable to the installation directory of the  64 bit  JDK  C  Program Files Java jdk1 7 0 11 in my case  Run SDK Manager as administrator at least once  SDK Manager allows you to change files in Program Files  so you should give it the proper access rights

Step  1  Open up a command prompt   Step  2  Use the cd command to move to wherever you installed your Android SDK   Step  3  Run tools android   If that does not work  you should have information dumped to the command prompt that will help you diagnose your setup problem

And if tools android works for you while  exe doesn t  it s probably the x64 java   It started working when i completely uninstalled JDK with JRE  shows as separate option in windows uninstal control panel applet  and android sdk and reinstalled using x86 version   Why does it worth the time  you may ask  Well  such an inconsistency obvoiusly means that amount of testing with x64 java is zero and so you can probably experience many other failures in the future

When I clicked SDK Manager on Program Files or run it in cmd  nothing happened   One of your problems is Long File Names in Windows  A number of the Android tools cannot handle them  I filed a bug report on them years ago  but I can t find it at the moment  I also seem to recall something about it in the INSTALL or README   So you should install the tools in a location without spaces  Use something like C  Android  or C  Android-SDK     Steve and  MeatPopsicle already mentioned spaces in the pathames  but it can t be overstated        Actually a black cmd window appears and disappears a milliseconds          Even I set path for ANDROID SWT   Out of curiosity  where did ANDROID SWT come from   I know Android does use ANDROID HOME  ANDROID SDK ROOT and ANDROID NDK ROOT  and the last two should both be set because the tools use them internally  Here s the reference on ANDROID SDK ROOT and ANDROID NDK ROOT  Recommended NDK Directory    So you should set the three environmental variables  after ensuring the installation directory does not contain spaces     ANDROID HOME ANDROID SDK ROOT ANDROID NDK ROOT   ANDROID HOME is set to the directory where the hidden directory  android is   ANDROID SDK ROOT is set to the directory where the SDK is installed  like C  Android-SDK    ANDROID NDK ROOT is set to the directory where the NDK is installed  like C  Android-NDK   If its not installed  then don t set it     Once you have ANDROID SDK ROOT set  you can put  ANDROID SDK ROOT  tools and  ANDROID SDK ROOT  platform-tools on PATH  Then  you can drop into a command line and issue something like this  and it just works    adb list

Finally got this torterous SDK to run   When installing 32bit Java on 64bit windows system  set ANDROID SWT to e  android-sdk tools lib x86  not    x86 64  Dear Android SDK team   I genuinely hope some serious attention is being paid to these problems  SDK should be effortless to set up  This is how you lose customers to other platforms where this kind of thing is a one-click ordeal   I was going to buy another android device to test my game on  but after last 2 days trying to traverse the maze of your incompetence I think i ll just stick with iOS as my main development target

The way I solved your last problem was by right clicking the android bat file  and chose edit with notepad    I then went down to the part of the program where it had this bit of code   cd  d   dp0   It was also some other lines of code  but I deleted them  After deleting these other lines I simply just wrote under the cd  d   dp0     cd Program Files  cd java  cd jdk1 7 0 03  cd bin  I dont know here you java exe file is located but mine was at lest located there

I FINALLY GOT THIS WORKING AFTER 2 SOUL DESTROYING EVENINGS OF TRYING  IF I EVER MEET AN ANDROID SDK DEVELOPER I WILL HACK HIM TO DEATH WITH HIS OWN KEYBOARD  Anyway  tips for getting it working on Windows 7 64 bit     I suspect for me it was multiple problems as none of the suggestions worked so I will list all the things I did to finally get it working  1  Install the 32 BIT version of Java JDK  yes  even if you are running 64bit Windows   2  Install both the SDK and the JDK to paths that have no spaces in  I used C  Android and C  Java32   3  In the Windows environment variables screen  System Properties   Advanced Settings   Env vars   there s two places you can enter the variables  the  User Variables  and  System variables   I put them in both and included the  bin  bit in both e g      JAVA HOME   C  Java32 jdk1 8 0 20 bin      Path   C  Java32 jdk1 8 0 20 bin other paths should come AFTER the jdk      4  Edit the file tools android bat and look for the following      set java exe       call lib find java bat   change this to      set java exe  C  Java32 jdk1 8 0 20 bin java exe       rem call lib find java bat   You can also put the   echo off  to   echo on  at the top of the file for debugging purposes  Good luck

I had the same problem  running X64 Java  1 7 0 03-b05   Even though I had both C  Program Files Java jre7 bin and C  Program Files Java jdk1 7 0 03 bin listed in my path  it wouldn t start - just flashed a command prompt   The tools lib find java bat file was reporting that it was attempting to run C  Windows system32 java exe but failed  Huh  I checked  and found outdated copies of java exe  javaw exe and javaws exe in my C  Windows system32  How did those get there  I didn t put them there   I deleted those three files from C  Windows system32 and the problem was fixed   Thinking about it  the problem likely would have been fixed by making sure thatC  Program Files Java jre7 bin and C  Program Files Java jdk1 7 0 03 bin were at the START of my PATH variable instead of tacked onto the end
