3.2 the problem of installing the sdk platform. "Done. Nothing installed."

I select everything in the new update 3.2, but then I get the error message "done. Nothing was installed" after the sdk manager starts its process.

Here is the sdk installation log:

The key to your problem is simple. You must have administrator access. Files are not created automatically and therefore installation is not performed.

Start>>And roid SDK Manager>>right click SDK Manager and select run as administrator.

Try downloading again. It should work fine.

these answers are for Windows users as he recommends running the administrator as an administrator. for those on any linux platform (I'm on OSX), I suggest you cd to the folder where sdk is trying to download (for me it was / android -sdk / temp)

then I allowed all permissions in the folder recursively by running

 sudo chmod 777 ./

Since you will most likely use the SDK manager more than once, and he will always need these administrator rights, a better option than remembering to right-click on a file / shortcut and selecting “run as administrator” each time would be set to the application was always executed with administrator rights without the need to remember this every time by following these steps:

  • Go to the SDK manager.
  • Right-click the SDK Manager.exe file.
  • Select properties from the context menu.
  • Go to the compatibility tab.
  • Check the box "Run this program as administrator."
  • Click ok to close the properties dialog box.

On Linux, just run gksudo android or kdesudo android to run the Android SDK manager as root.

I had a similar problem and this is what I did
in windows 10, the SDK manager is located in

 C:\Users\your_userfolder\AppData\Local\Android\sdk

if you don’t see the “Appdata” folder, just click “Open” at the top of the window and check the “Hidden Objects” folder. right-click the "SDK Manager.exe" file and click "run as administrator". After that, the packages should start the installation.
