  URL not found: C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\temp\build-tools_r18.1.1-windows.zip (Access is denied)
  Done. Nothing was installed.

I didn't find anything on the web that could help. What could be the problem?

Answer 1

open the android Sdk folder right click on sdk manager run as administrator. select update/new install.

Open command prompt as an administrator. Elevated permissions should resolve this issue.

Answer 3

Thanx to doydoy. It works in two ways: 1) Running SDK manager as admin 2) Command line works when CMD window with admin priveleges is used (aka elevated permissions)
