Android SDK and AVD Manager will not run

Question

I installed the Android SDK but I cannot use it because the AVD and SDK Managers do not run. When I try to open either one of them, a command prompt window pops up for about

Answer 1

I had this issue and the problem turned out to be this:

D:\dev\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20130522\sdk>"tools\lib\find_java.exe"
C:\Windows\system32\java.exe

I vaguely recall ages ago having an issue with a program finding Java and copying it to the system32 directory to "resolve" it.

I removed those files and now:

D:\dev\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20130522\sdk>"tools\lib\find_java.exe"
C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe

and SDK/ADK manager run properly now.
