I need to install some packages in Android SDK Manager, but in my SDK folder there isn't the .exe file (There is only the AVD Manager and the folders).
How can I find it? My SDK works normally with Android Studio, without problems, it's strange that SDK Manager.exe isn't there.
I had to install an older version
https://dl.google.com/android/installer_r24.4.1-windows.exe
and update it. Going from there worked
To open the SDK Manager from Android Studio, click Tools > Android > SDK Manager or click SDK Manager in the toolbar. If you're not using Android Studio, you can download tools using the sdkmanager command-line tool.
Check this link: https://developer.android.com/studio/intro/update.html#sdk-manager
I found C:\NVPACK\android-sdk-windows\tools\android.bat
When I ran it, it brought up SDK Manager.
Which was nice, because I couldn't find SDK Manager in the C:\NVPACK\android-sdk-windows\lib folder like I was told it would be there.
You can find Android SDK Manager.exe file in the following folder:
C:\Users[account]\AppData\Local\Android\sdk (sdk1 in my case)
You can tap on that and you will get the Android SDK Manager screen.
Go to android_sdk/tools/bin/ open cmd and type sdkmanager and hit enter you can use command prompt for it
You can find sdk manager under command-line tools, which you will have to download by clicking the configure drop-down link under the android studio start-up wizard.
C:\Users[account]\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\cmdline-tools\latest\bin
C:\Users[account]\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\cmdline-tools\latest\bin
I had trouble running from here because I didn't have the right permission. I was trying to update my SDK. I got it running from another folder on my system with the command line command:
"C:/Program Files (x86)/Android/android-sdk/cmdline-tools/7.0/bin/sdkmanager.bat" --update --sdk_root="C:/Program Files (x86)/Android/android-sdk/cmdline-tools"
On Visual Studio 2022 you can look under Tools/Android/Android SDK Manager

When I type 'android' at my command prompt I have the following message 'The "android" command is no longer available. For manual SDK and AVD management, please use Android Studio. For command-line tools, use tools\bin\sdkmanager.bat and tools\bin\avdmanager.bat'.
What do I do?
The standalone GUI based SDK manager (and AVD manager) is now gone!
You either have to use the standalone command at <SDK_ROOT>\tools\bin\sdkmanager or
the inbuilt GUI SDK manager within the Android Studio found at: Tools>Android > SDK Manager
Not sure what has caused this but there is a workaround you just need to download and replace the tools folder in your Android SDK with an earlier version and it will work again.
Follow these steps:
Click the link below for your OS and download a new Android SDK tools folder:
(Mac) https://dl.google.com/android/repository/tools_r25.2.3-macosx.zip
(Windows) https://dl.google.com/android/repository/tools_r25.2.3-windows.zip
Goto your Android SDK folder (on Mac its: /Users/username/Library/Android/sdk) then find the folder named "tools" and delete it
Unzip and copy the tools folder you downloaded from the link to your Android SDK folder
That's it.. You should now be able to run the android command from the terminal again
I had to navigate to and run the following
cd /Users/<username>/Library/Android/sdk
tools/bin/sdkmanager --licenses
I tried to reinstall Android Studio on Ubuntu and seems not to get to download the Sdk this time.
Go to Android Studio download page and go to Get just the command line tools section and download the SDK tools for Linux
Then after download is done, launch the SDK manger and install the needed packages.
Then finally, Open Android studio and change the SDK path to your new path, see attached screenshot for this step
So i just downloaded the vstoolsforxamarin fro mthe xamarin website. For some reason I do not have the platform-tools folder or the adb.exe . Without this I can't work with any android project. What can I do?
Update:
I found the solution. I opened the Android SDK Manager outside the VS and I Installed the abd.exe from it. Then I got the folder I needed and it is solved. Thanks :)
On windows the default location is :
C:\Program Files(x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools\
or on a Mac it is:
/Users/<username>/Library/Developer/Xamarin/android-sdk-macosx/platform-tools/
Open sdk manager (with administrator rights) and install "Android SDK Platform-tools"
I have downloaded android APIs and I've copied one of them to this path
H:\Android\android-sdk\platforms\api
But again in SDK none of APIs wasn't installed.
THe sdk is what is suppose to be used to install the API you should not be copying it.
follow:
You can launch the SDK Manager in one of the following ways:
From Eclipse (with ADT), select Window > Android SDK Manager.
On Windows, double-click the SDK Manager.exe file at the root of the Android SDK directory.
On Mac or Linux, open a terminal and navigate to the tools/ directory in the Android SDK, then execute android sdk.
You can select which packages you want to download by toggling the checkboxes on the left, then click Install to install the selected packages.
The link below will give you more pointers.

You need to use Android SDK Manager to download the APIs for Android. Check this:

I have downloaded and unzipped the file android-sdk_r15-windows.zip from the
URL http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html, however the install instructions
I have installed the SDK and the ADT plugin for eclipse as described with no hitches, however when I go to create a new AVD using the AVD Manager.exe that came with the install archive there are no targets. This seems to be because i haven't installed any platforms into my system. This is where the question comes. All the install instructions and tutorials refer to executables, 1) SDK setup.exe and 2) Android SDK and AVD Manager, neither of these applications came with the install zip described above. There are however 2 files SDK Manager.exe and AVD Manager.exe. So without the tools described ongline it seems impossible to install the platforms into the SDK, does anyone know where these tools went or how to install platforms into my system using the SDK Manager or AVD Manager
[Edit]
Here is an image of what I am describing,
In the root of the sdk zip file, there is an SDK Manager executable. If you run that, you can use it to select which platforms you want to download and install. Don't forget to install the platform-tools package as well.
The image below shows the available package screen within the manager:
I was also facing the same problem.
I have followed following steps.
Uninstall above installation from Eclips
