I recently tried to import sample Android games I downloaded from Google's developer website. After importing them into Android Studio, I'm getting the following error:
Error: SDK location not found. Define location with
sdk.dir
in the local.properties file or with anANDROID_HOME
environment variable.
What is this? I want to run the sample programs from Android Studio.
Please follow the below steps:
local.properties
For windows users:
sdk.dir=C:\\Users\\UserName\\AppData\\Local\\Android\\sdk
or (for newer versions of Android Studio / IntelliJ IDEA):
sdk.dir=C\:\\Users\\USERNAME\\AppData\\Local\\Android\\sdk
Where USERNAME your PC user name. Also, make sure the folder is sdk or Sdk.
Example:
sdk.dir=C:\\Users\\USERNAME\\AppData\\Local\\Android\\sdk
or:
sdk.dir=C\:\\Users\\USERNAME\\AppData\\Local\\Android\\Sdk
For Mac users:
sdk.dir = /Users/USERNAME/Library/Android/sdk
Where USERNAME is your OSX username.
For Linux (Ubuntu) users:
sdk.dir = /home/USERNAME/Android/Sdk
Where USERNAME is your linux username (Linux paths are case-sensitive: make sure the case of S
in Sdk
matches)
In case this doesn't work, add ANDROID_HOME variable in "Environment Variables" as C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk
