Can't update \tools - Android SDK Command Line Tools for Windows
Yeah that's quite funny. A way to do that is to copy the tools
folder to another place (let's say C:\temp\
). Then direct into the C:\temp\tools\bin\
, open the cmd prompt there and run your update commands as such:
sdkmanager.bat --sdk_root=sdkRootPath --command
Where sdkRootPath
is path to your original SDK folder (C:\testinstall\sdk\
). Once that is done, delete the C:\temp\tools\
copied folder.
You could temporarily rename to tools.old
, run it to install new version in tools
and then remove the old one.
cd YOUR-ANDROID-SDK-LOCATION
ren tools tools.old
tools.old\bin\sdkmanager.bat "tools"
dir tools*
del tools.old /q /s
tools\bin\sdkmanager.bat --list
