Regarding error message: Unable to locate adb
.
I followed what people said on other threads but none of them worked. So I uninstalled Android SDK platform-tools in SDK manager. Android studio didn't like me doing that so after 30 minutes I canceled the uninstalling. Now it has been doing "Stopping -Installing Android SDK" and shows my this message: "Cannot run program "C:\\Users\\admin\\AppData\\Local\\Android\\Sdk\\platform-tools\\adb.exe": CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified"
I have no idea what to do. I'll put the error message below. Many thanks for any reply.

I got this error when I upgraded my Android Studio from 2.3.2 to 3.0.1, too. It happened because there's no file named adb.exe in adb-path. But now it's solved. I hope my answer could help you.
First, I downloaded the latest version of SDK Tools in: https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools.html
Second, I extracted the file into Android Studio SDK's directory (in my case is "E:/SDK/"). But it will rewrite the old files with the new one.
Third, open terminal in Android Studio. run this :
Done :)
Open CMD as Administrator and simply run the command given below:
cd <adb-path> cd c:\Users\Pilot\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platform-tools\
Then run
adb devices
I had a similar issue. Apparently, My Anti-virus, in my case AVG, blocks the ADB. To solve it, just ignore the error message above. go to your anti-virus make sure adb isn't blocked. restart your android studio.
