This is a known issue. I apologize that I didn't have time to fix it for 14. http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=11989 You have 2 easy workarounds: - Open an Explorer on the SDK/tools folder and manually launch android.bat from there. => Sadly if you do that, the Explorer sometimes lock the tools folder, preventing it from being updated. So close the explorer after starting android.bat - Open a cmd.exe, cd to your SDK and type "tools\android.bat". => If you however cd into the SDK\tools directory and then type just "android.bat" from there, the cmd.exe will lock the tools directory, preventing it from updating. I've added an entry on https://sites.google.com/a/android.com/tools/knownissues Hope this helps R/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
