Can't Install Android Development Toolkit: Says Missing JDK

I went to the Oracle site, downloaded and installed Java Platform (JDK) 7 on a Windows 7 64 bit virtual machine. I added the path to the c:\program files\Java\jdk1.7.0\bin to the pat开发者_StackOverflowh environment variable. I even deleted c:\windows\system32\Java.exe as recommended by someone. I was essentially following this: "Android Create" call fails in windows 7 - missing JDK

When I install the ADT it gives me the error JDK could not be found. Download the latest JDK. Why?

Thanks.

this is caused because the Android DK finds java in the c:\windows\system32\ folder before it finds the JDK one.

To resolve this edit your PATH environment variable and put the JDK path before the c:\windows\system32\ path.

Just in the ADT installer , press back when the installer promite for No JDK Found then press next, the installer will find the JDK, for sure this is a common bug

Does that happen when you open eclipse?

I'm thinking in two possible problems. Here is one possible solution: Eclipse - no Java (JRE) / (JDK) ... no virtual machine

If you already got this, go to Window -> Android SDK and AVD preferences

The first "preference" should ask you your Android SDK folder. you need to set this correctly.

Your JDK installation is not proper.

Reinstall JDK. It should be working fine.

I also had this problem once. I have done the above to resolve this issue.

You should not delete C:\Windows\System32 folder for this issue, It might lead to OS problems.

adil's answer is the one which finally worked for me (although I had added the jdk\bin to the path and created\set the JAVA_HOME to the same); moving the jdk\din directory before the win\sys32 in the PATH finally allowed me to install the android sdk on win7/64bit
