Answer 2

• Open android studio

• Press configure or if project opens go to settings

• lookup Android SDK shown in picture

• You can see your Android SDK Location. Open file in file explorer to that location.

• Add this to end or direct through to this

\platform-tools\adb.exe

full path on my pc is :

C:\Users\Daniel\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\platform-tools

Answer 3

It is located in the AppData hidden folder

C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platform-tools

From l33t's comment below you may use the following shortcut:

%LOCALAPPDATA%\Android\sdk\platform-tools

Answer 4

Got it to work go to the local.properties file under your build.gradle files to find out the PATH to your SDK, from the SDK location go into the platform-tools folder and look and see if you have adb.exe.

If not go to http://adbshell.com/downloads and download ADB KITS. Copy the zip folder's contents into the platform-tools folder and re-make your project.

I didn't need to update the PATH in the Extended Controls Settings section on the emulator, I left Use detected ADB location settings on. Hope this makes this faster for you !

Answer 5

Open a cmd window and type where adb.exe

For me

D:\android-sdk_r24.4.1-windows\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools\adb.exe

Answer 6

Since you already have Android Studio installed, and require the environment variable ANDROID_HOME to be set, the easy way to do this is to add %ANDROID_HOME%\platform-tools to your path.
