Android sdk not included with android studio

Trying to download android studio, i have all the needed requirements for a PC.
Found that i need both jdk and sdk and that sdk should be included with android studio.
First i downloaded and installed jdk.
After downloading android studio from https://developer.android.com/studio/ , everytime i start a new project i get the following error
Your Android SDK is missing, out of date or corrupted
I checked the path of my sdk and found that by default it should be
C:\Users\elhachem\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk
Or in Appdata/Local there isn't any folder named Android..
Seems like android studio download doesn't contain sdk anymore.
I downloaded latest version of sdk and created the path AppData/Local/Android and i inserted my sdk inside.. Keep on having same error

First check its location from SDK Manager. There you might find a way to solve the problem. If still you have problems, then i recommend you to download to another drive (like D or F). Then again check its location from SDK Manager. If the location is not set, then point it to your new downloaded SDK. And as far as i can tell from the comments your internet connection might not be working properly.

Can't find android sdk anywhere

I installed android studio but as soon as i started it, an error popped up saying
please provide a path to android sdk
i searched for it but again and again i am being redirected to ide download page only, but there's no sdk present there.
earlier android studio bundle was provided in the same link but now, only ide seems to be present in this link
i already tried getting sdk from another resources but again, no luck.

Try by uninstalling it and installing it again, or press the windows key + r and type appdata and search there for your sdk path then use that path when android studio asks you for the sdk

Try in Settings on Android studio then type sdk and edit Android sdk location and finally chose a location, it will install a new version of sdk if there is no Android sdk on this location

You don't have Android SDK Tools in your folder.
Download Android SDK Tools and insert it in your sdk folder.

Xamarin - disconnected from layout renderer

I just downloaded xamarin studio. I get an error message "disconnected from layout renderer please close the file and try again" whenever i open a axml in the layout folder. I can view the source but can't go to the design tab to add controls. Closing the filed does not work.
I'm not sure how to find what version of xamarin.android i'm using but I just downloaded last night. When I go to the SDK manager it tells me my Android SDK Tools are version 23.0.4.
I found this old thread on the same topic. I tried renaming my tools folder and downgrading but that didnt' work either. It told me I need tools of at least version 22.

I've tried uninstalling Xamarin Studio and reinstalling and that didn't help. I do have Visual Studio 2013 with update 3 installed too. But then I also tried installing Xamarin Studio on another laptop with Visual Studio 2012 and got the exact same problem.
Note: this error displays in both Visual Studio and Xamarin Studio.
I really hope I can get this resolved as i'm evaluating Xamarin for 2 companies. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Only this time, you need to downgrade from 23.0.4 to 23.0.2.
Just found this out the hard way.

Thank you Balint! You made my weekend!!! Here is a direct link to the tools version that works.

I recently had this same issue when trying to open the main.xaml in Xamarin Studio for Mac OS X. Here are the steps I took to resolve the problem:
Open the Android SDK Manager in Xamarin Studio and delete the Android SDK Tools.
Re-download the SDK Tools from [https://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html?hl=i]. Revision 23.0.2
Make sure the downloaded SDK is unzipped in the path /Users/username/Library/Developer/Xamarin/android-sdk-macosx
Then I launched the SDK Manager from the Terminal using cd library/developer/xamarin/android-sdk-macosx/tools ./android
When the SDK launches, make sure the Android SDK Tools is not selected, else it will update it to 23.0.5 which appears to currently be broken.
After the SDK Manager updates and installs all the packages, re-open Xamarin Studio and go to Preferences -> SDK Locations -> Android and chose the path for the Android SDK.
After following these steps I was able to successfully open the main.xaml files for Android on OS X.
