I am following the guide on http://developer.android.com/tools/extras/oem-usb.html for installing driver software so I can run applications on my actual Nexus 7. I got to this step in the directions(ironic cause its also step 7)
7.Click Browse and locate the USB driver folder. (The Google USB Driver is located in <sdk>\extras\google\usb_driver\.)
I tried doing the following
However when I hit browse, I got a dialog prompt saying "Windows could not find driver software for your device". The Android documentation stated that "The Google USB Driver is located in \extras\google\usb_driver\". When I navigated into \extras\google, this is all i saw
Is there anyway I could download the usb_driver directory manually? The sdk came along with the Android Studio download. I don't know why that usb_driver directory isn't there.
The issue was that I jumped ahead and skipped the most important step, downloading the Google USB Driver......
After installing the Google USB Driver package, Go to Device manager and search for your connected android phone and give the following path for android driver.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\extras\google\usb_driver
But by me, after downloading the SDK Tools/Google USB drive (not "Extra" anymore), when I try to update the driver (from device manager: Portable Devices/Galaxy J7 Nxt) it says: the best drivers for your device are already installed.
windows 10 / android 6 marshmalow installed.
phone: android J7 Nxt
driver installed: SAMSUNG Mobile MTP Device

I have a Huawei U8815 and its not getting recognized on Windows by the Android Studio, I already changed MTP to PTP and didn't worked, but on Mac it works.
And I have a Nexus-7 and it works on both.
You need to install USB drivers for the device before it can appear in Android Studio. To confirm that the reasons missing drivers, open device manager You would find an entry that requires drivers with a yellow alert/warning icon, something similar to the image below but not exactly this.
Now Install the appropriate USB/ADB driver for the device. Once driver is installed you can view the device in Android studio.
You may either download the drivers from this link or Install HiSuite to get the drivers installed.
You need to download official drivers of the device..and then you are done :) cheers
Installed Android Studio and tried to launch an app. I can choose from different emulator, but I can't find my phone. I have connected it to my computer, enabled debugging in Developer Options, and I have tried to update the drivers from device manager in Windows, but Windows keep saying the best drivers are already installed. Anyone else had this problem? Really appreciate a solution.
Install the phone ADB to your pc from the internet, then from the device manager update the driver using the files you downloaded from the previous step, enjoy!
You can read more from this link USB Drivers
This worked for me:

You have to update "android device"-driver manually in the windows device manager.
Previously I have been using Windows 8.1 and Android Studio to develop Android apps and all was well. However I have now just upgraded to Windows 10 and I am having a Slight Issue.
I have a Nexus 7 that I am using to debug, and Android Studio can no longer see this device to use it. As I said all was well in Windows 8.1.
Has anyone else come across this, and have you managed to get round it? Am I missing something obvious?
Thanks again
Steve
Got exactly the same issue. Steps to fix that.
#1 Uninstall driver
#2 Unplug device and restart pc
#3 Plug device and install driver downloaded from the web not from device
A day looking for a solution of the same problem like you.
I use a Sony C4 and Android Studio on Windows 10,
my problem of my phone is not detected in Windows 10.
You can check in MyComputer> Properties> Device Manager.
The first step
I downloaded OEM USB Drivers for my phone, see the list of OEM Drivers url
create a directory "usb_driver" in <.sdk.>\extras\google\
<.sdk.> = C:\Users\Karebet\AppData\Local\Android\SDK\
I extract OEM USB Drivers then copy paste to <.sdk.>\extras\google\usb_driver\
The second step
I not download from the SDK but from Google USB Driver
I extract the Google USB Drivers then copy paste to <.sdk.>\extras\google\usb_driver\
not include directory "amd64" and "i386"
Third step
Right-click MyComputer> Properties> Device Manager
check whether there is a device not in the know in Others Device
if there: right-click> Properties> Tab "Driver"> Update Driver> Browser my computer blabla > select dir usb_driver in <.sdk.>\extras\google\,
and click OK . wait a while Driver has been detected
Hope it helps you
I tried to install a Google USB driver (sdk\extras\google\usb_driver) using Device Manager, but it said "Windows was unable to install your USB Composite Device".
I use this universal ADB driver pack (from Koush.com)

I want to be able to run android apps I am developing in eclipse on my Samsung Galaxy S4. I followed the steps here... http://developer.android.com/tools/extras/oem-usb.html and when I get to this part...
Click Browse and locate the USB driver folder. (The Google USB Driver is located in \extras\google\usb_driver.)
I get the following error message...
The folder you specified does not contain compatible driver software for your devise.
If the folder contains a driver make sure it is designed to work with windows x64-based systems.
I am running 64bit Windows 7 on a Lenovo thinkpad. I recently installed the eclipse-ADK bundle.
you must just download samsung usb driver and instal it on device then restart adb and eclipse.
you can download samsung usb driver from below link
http://developer.samsung.com/android/tools-sdks/Samsung-Andorid-USB-Driver-for-Windows
good luck
The Google driver is for Google devices, like the Nexus.
Galaxy S4 is not a Google device, it's a Samsung device. Therefore, you must download the Samsung driver: http://developer.samsung.com/android/tools-
sdks/Samsung-Android-USB-Driver-for-Windows
Please do your research next time :)
The device manager shows that i have no drive for nexus one (it shows a yellow question mark).
Therefore, windows doesnt identify nexus one..even though i can open the folder of the android when i connect the device..
Even HTC Sync application says that no devices is conencted, even thought the device is connected to the pc.
What do i do?
ps. all the settings on android were taken care of..application debuggable mode and allow unknown applications are ticked. The SDK manager is fully updated!!!
UPDATE:
I go to the device manager and tell it to look for the driver here:
D:\android-sdk-windows\extras\google\usb_driver
Thats what the android developer tells me to do:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html#WinXp
It didnt work..cause i havent got the folder:
<sdk>\google-usb_driver\.
The guide tells me:
Click Browse and locate the USB driver folder. (The Google USB Driver is located in <sdk>\google-usb_driver\.)
Where is teh usb driver that was installed by the sdk manager?
you have to install the driver for you phone ! for the nexus one the driver can be downloaded form the SDK Manager, in the Available packages under Third party addons/Google inc/Google USB Driver Package
