If I choose Tools > Android > SDK Manager from the menu, or click the SDK Manager icon on the tool bar, nothing happens. What can I do to correct the problem?
I had the same problem. When checking the {SDK}/tools/android it said it couldn't create a file, and I noticed it was in a location that needed admin approval.
When launching android studio, launch it as administrator then try it. Fixed it for me.
Did you check {SDK}/tools/android launch?
In my case, after a failed update 0.3 -> 0.59, I had clean-installed (unzipped) the wrong version (update only, which started just fine, but without SDKs), I had to reinstall the bundle version to even have SDK manager.

My sdk manager was working, well, it seems to be working, but as soon as I started to download anything - showed me errors, something like "didnt create directory.." so solution was simple and easy - run as administrator. Or you can just change exe file to run as administrator in properties of this file ;)
Your Path environment variable doesn't contain C:\Windows\System32. Please try adding it and your error will be resolved!
Launch Android Studio as administrator and disable your anti-virus and try again. My comodo internet security was creating the trouble.
For ubuntu users,change the permission of {SDK}/tools/android to read/write for all users

I am updating my android studio but show me bellow error :
My android studio is 2.3.1
I had the same problem but starting the Android Studio in Administrator Mode has helped me to continue with the update.
The reason is that the SDK manager would write the location of the temp file where it downloads the installer. For example in OP's case its mentioned as below:
in a line form the log or error message
Due to some reason that file might not be available any more and Android studio instead of asking for a re-download would give this error.
The solution to fix this is to find the file .installData from where SDK manager is getting this info and delete it. This will force SDK manager to re download that component only and you don't need to download the complete SDK again
The content of the file looks something like this
#Tue May 16 18:41:10 GST 2017
class=com.android.repository.impl.installer.BasicInstaller
path=C\:\\Users\\user\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\PackageOperation03
The content and path of the file would be different for different components
I got the same issue on Linux.
It was a permission issue on the SDK installation folder.
In Tools -> Android -> SDK manager there is the SDK installation folder at the top of the window.
Just do a chmod 777 -R on this folder, problem solved.
I had the same problem and i tried to uninstall/install the android studio but that didn't work out for me.
I had recently installed a fresh copy of windows. I'm using windows 10 64bit.
My problem turned out to be permission for the folder that contained the android studio/sdk.
To solve it, I removed old user permissions for user of old windows and added full control for my new user(not sure but i think modify permission would be enough).
To do so, I right click on the folder then selected the security tab.
Then click on Edit
Then click Add in the new screen
my user is named hany so i wrote hany then clicked on Check Names and it choose the right one.Click Ok
the user appears as Users (DESKTOP-8FKNNEM\Users) and then i check the Full control Then Ok
If the user had already existed in the Security tab then it should have permissions that would enable writing
I had this problem before and I tried to uninstall android studio and tried everything but I found the solution..
the solution is :
Download SDK from beginning , and change the SDK path to the new one, then it all will work .. good luck
delete
sdk-root\sources\android-##\.installer\.installData
and
sdk-root\platforms\android-##\.installer\.installData
My solution: (not as complicated as it looks)
Close project and exit Android Studio.
Run Android Studio as Administrator. (Right click on Android's icon will do.)
Android automatically loads a previous project, at exactly where I have left it supposedly.
However, it isn't where I have left it. It is at an earlier project where things (sdk settings/locations) have NOT gone wrong.
Next thing, I open the project I want to work on. A dialogue box appears saying that the Project SDK and Android SDK are pointing to different local folders. Two buttons allow me to choose which SDK location I want to use.
Either one should work!!!
Reflection:
It happens when we switch to a different user but tried to work on the same project.
We should remember to run Android Studio as Administrator unless we have an absolute clear mind about how SDK works.
Make sure you don't have an emulator running when you perform the sdk update. That was my problem that was giving this error.
Check the logs - Menu -> help -> show log in files.
In file explorer sort files by modified time.
Go to end at latest updated file you will find some error written there
In my case, it was "No space left on device".
ide.log location
Help -> Show Log in Explorer
Right click android studio and click run as administrator.. it will work.
It happens some times, you have to re-download it from the beginning with all the files because it seems that the download failed at some point, and then retry
Once I also stuck on that when tried to install emulator via AndroidSDK manager.
The solution is simple.
Right click on your Android sdk home and select sort by time.
And see last modified files.
In my case there were two text files. First file in root folder - ".knownPackages" with text something like: "ÈäUuMá–m ™ŒÝ¼´" and another one in".installdata"with endless text "nullnullnull....". But i forgot its location right now. You can search that in windows explorer.
Then I replaced them to a folder not related to Android home. Sdk re-generated them both after emulator installation.And it started work as it was before

Problem Solved....
The easiest way I used to fix this issue is to run Android Studio as administrator (Note! My android studio installed on C:/ partition, so this issue caused by permissions)
enter image description here
I found a file ".installData" on the system drive of Windows on advice #dmsherazi. I in this file simply deleted a line in which the path is specified. Then I restarted the Studio and the update fell into place.
solution: install and reinstall Android Studio SDK
or deleting the \instantapps folder in C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\extras\google\instantapps could be the right solution
Go to "android-sdk" folder. Then go to "ndk-bundle", find and delete ".installData". Come back to Android Studio and goto "Help" and "Check for Updates...". I hope this will work for most of the systems. This problem solved on Android Studio 3.3.2 version.
Make sure that you have the correct access rights to the folder where the sdk is located
If this issue is with Ubuntu please try to start android studio as an administrator privilege by using the command
sudo sh studio.sh
It will resolve this issue.
If you are going for a console command it would be:
chmod -R 777 /www/store. The -R (or --recursive) options make it recursive.
Or if you want to make all the files in the current directory have all permissions type:
chmod -R 777 ./
If you need more info about chmod command see: File permission
First of all you have to show hidden files. then go to this location...
"C:\Users\pc\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\emulator.installer"
there you will find a file by name ".installData". just delete it.
Come back to Android Studio and goto "Help" and "Check for Updates...". I hope this will work for most of the systems.
Thank me later😎
I had the same problem and I tried to delete sdk-root\.temp directory and it worked for me.
I restarted Android in Administrator mode and it worked for me
Check your internet connection/Change another internet connection and try again.
It shows that I've already installed the Android SDK but I can't find it.:<
Tried in terminal to see what's in the folder but find nothing, this location is empty. Why the app tell me that I've installed it? How can I solve this problem? Thank you!!
I would say that you reinstall Android Studio after checking the SDK Manager at first. The SDK Path may also be corrupted, so check that.
For me it was two issues, proxy settings although tested okay was not connecting to display the list of available SDKs. Also launching Android Studio using "Run as administrator" was also required.
I had exactly the same issue and I came across this post but then before implementing the suggested solutions, I decided to first restart my AndroidStudio, on restart it gave me the option to download SDK and after that, it worked perfectly well.
I have fixed it by downloading the Android SDK from IntelliJ rather than Android Studio.
Then restart Android Studio, It detects the installed version.
I'm Windows 7 64-bit user and I got Android Studio problem after I update the latest version of Android Studio and SDK components..

Please help me to resolve this problem. Thank you.
I had the same issue when trying to upgrade Android Studio from 1.1 to 1.2 on Mac OS 10.10.
I solved the problem by selecting custom installation instead of standard. Also we need to select the Android SDK Platform (Lollipop 5.1).
Choose the new UI Design >> next
Just try to cancel the "Downloading Components" from upper right
corner 'X' button.
A dialog box will appear then click OK (wait a bit for first time
launch)
I uninstall Only Android studio (keep the SDK and Emulator) and then reinstall it just android studio. took me 2 minutes and my android studio work again.
I had this same problem, but I'm a Linux user.
I resolved the problem by reattempting the installation with adminstrator privileges. [For those Linux users reading this, I ran studio.sh with sudo.]
I just click 'Retry' and it's ok! Also run on Win7 64-bit.
TRY BELOW SOLUTIONS.
SOLUTION 1:
-> Run Android Studio as Administrator (this is only required for first run or when any issues arise due to automatic updates on any run in future).
Though it shows API 23 is or any other updates are not installed (and wouldn't show any 'Retry' button), BUT still the download and installation of rest of the updates would proceed (you can see the download progress incrementing even after seeing the above errors). So, DO NOT ABORT the operation.
-> At the end of installation (after rest of successful updates are installed) it would this time display the "Retry" button to retry installation for API 23 or any other versions which had failed earlier. Then click the "Retry" button, it would work this time.
This would resolve your issue with successful installation.
-> Next time onward no need to run Android studio as Administrator, unless it does any automatic updates and shows similar issues.
SOLUTION 2:
-> Alternative approach is to install any updates (which ever failed in earlier attempt) from Android SDK Manager first and then later launch Android Studio (which would not need any check for updates and any additional installations).
To install any features or updates, run Android SDK manager as administrator (run as administrator is not mandatory for this but preferred to avoid any permissions related issues) and check the required options and proceed with the installation without any issues.
SOLUTION 3:
-> If still your issue is not resolved, then try the proxy solution as suggested by others or check your internet connectivity if it's working properly or not.
*Any of the above solutions should resolve your issues.
go to c->users->[Your user account]-> remove android 1.2 and restart the android studio

Install SDK Platform Android M Preview
And run Android Studio again.
It's working for me :D

I was getting an "out of space" error, which left me scratching my head as I had plenty of disk space, until I realized that it ran out of space on /tmp, which on Arch Linux is mounted on a tmpfs with a size limit.
I have installed both the latest ADT Bundle and the latest JAVA SE, and have configured the PATH variable with the java/bin location in the first place. However, still the SDK Manager won't run. When I try to open the manager from Eclipse, a window pops up saying "Initializing" and then it closes and nothing happens. When I run the android.bat file from the SDK, I get the following error:
Any help to run the SDK Manager would be highly appreciated. I'm running Windows 7 64-bit. ADT version is v22.3.0-887826 and JAVA SE version is 7 update 45.
Fixed the issue
Apparently, I have to run the SDK Manager as an administrator. This fixed the issue. The "access denied" part should have given me some hint! Thanks everyone!

Hello, I did the following
Open the windows explorer
Paste this address
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\
Right click on folder Temp, then
Properties, then Security, then Advanced Then click on button Change
permissions
Remove all permissions
Select: Include inheritable
permissions from this object's parent
Select: Replace all child object
permissions with inheritable permissions from this object
Click OK....
Maybe a windows' update changed permissions. I hope this works with you.
First of all you try to install java JDK and after then you try to install Android ADT Bundle

The easy answer to this question is Right click eclipse.exe and select "Run as Administrator". Now it should all work as a charm.
Note that this only works if you originally did "Run as Administrator" when you first installed the Google plugins. If not, they may be disabled when you Run as Administrator and then you may need to delete the plugins and start over doing this. Otherwise, you'll keep having problems with permissions down the road.
This is an issue with versions of Windows since Vista. The "access is denied" message appears when you do not have write permissions to created files & directories in the Program Files directory (which is the case by default).
I faced the same problem and tried to run Eclipse, with the 'Run as administrator' option, but to no avail. I ended up moving the Android SDK to D:/ from C:
I am able to proceed now.
Perhaps the easiest way...
Go to Program(x86) -> Android -> (Right Click) -> Properties -> Security -> (In group or user names) choose "Users" click "Edit" then check the "Full Control", "Modify", and "Write"
Good luck my peers
Right click the android folder on program files, and set Modify premission to Users.
I had the same issue. I tried to run the Eclipse and SDK manager as administrator, without any luck.
For me, the trick was to temporarily disable my anti-virus (Avast in my case), and proceed to the installation with the SDK manager.
Yes that is true and now working.
Please doing this 3 step all people:
have an us intenet ip
run the program ass adminstrator
change android directory to d than current c 100% work dont worry
