Its simple, go the tab tools in android studio, click on it than click SDK manager. It will open a window called settings for new projects. Go to android SDK than select the SDK u want to download. This will definitely work.

Answer 2

I uninstalled Android Studio from Control Pannel. Save in a safe place the folder and subfolders below C:\USERS\MYNAME\ANDROIDSTUDIOPROJECTS

After I deleted c:\users\MYNAME\.ANDROIDSTUDIO3.1 AND c:\users\MYNAME\.ANDROID

After all I installed android studio. Take a long time but it resolved the problem.

Answer 3

I ran into this and after uninstall and reinstall, still could not find the option under Tools.

After I opened a project, I found the option. There is a button (fourth from the right) that is the SDK Manager.

Answer 4

This happened with me on Windows 10 with Android Studio 3.1. The SDK was missing & I couldn't download or install it with the IDE. Android Studio wasn't downloading or installing the SDK properly, despite going through the steps. An error would appear at the end of the SDK configuration wizard telling me the SDK hadn't been installed b/c the sdk/tools directory didn't exist (no sh1t sherlock). I had not previously downloaded or installed Android Studio or the SDK.

It turns out that Android Studio 3.1 didn't have option checked for 'Enable embedded Maven repository' in the IDE Preferences.

After enabling the embedded Maven repo & restarting Android Studio, the SDK configuration wizard started up & successfully downloaded/installed the SDK.
