Visual Studio 2017 工具 -> Android 已禁用

Question

When I try to run a new blank Android app I get an error:

"The Android SDK Directory could not be found...".

I searched in google for a solution and I found out that I need to go to Tools -> Android -> Android SDK Manager , and then I realized the buttons are disabled.

I did some checks: in Tools -> Options -> Android Setting for Android SDK Location and it's empty. Furthermore, the folder Programs Files(x86)\Android\android-sdk contain only 1 folder named extras

I did a VS repair, twice, and nothing changed.

As I understand the problem, I don't have SDK and somehow VS can't install it properly.

Is there any manual way to install it or any other solution?

Edit : I've tried to uninstall Visual Studio and install again. It couldn't install everything successfully, here is the log:

Package 'JavaJDKV2,version=1.8.6,chip=x64' failed to install.

Answer 1

I fixed it and here is what worked for me:

1. I downloaded the Android Command line tools
2. I put the downloaded folder in C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk
3. I opened CMD and directed to that folder.
4. I've checked the command sdkmanager --list , see sdkmanager page for more information
5. And I downloaded via the sdkmanager commands the SDKs I needed
6. Also, VS2017's SDK manager started to work as well after I downloaded what I needed from the command line.

Answer 2

download the latest version of "sdk-tools-windows-4333796.zip" in https://developer.android.com/studio this web site and update your visual studio to latest version

this will surely work because even in my case it was same error for 3days then i did these changes and now it works fine

Install Android studio - https://developer.android.com/studio Open Android studio -> configure -> copy Android SDK location Open Visual studio -> Tools -> Options -> Xamarin -> paste your SDK location Done!
