- In the System Properties dialog, under the “Advanced” tab, click on “Environment Variables.”
Add the ANDROID_HOME Variable:
- In the System Variables section, click “New” to create a new variable.
- Set the variable name as 'ANDROID_HOME'.
- Set the variable value to the path of your Android SDK installation.
Update the Path Variable:
- In the System Variables section, locate and select the “Path” variable.
- Click “Edit” and append the following to the variable value: ';%ANDROID_HOME%;%ANDROID_HOME%\platform-tools;%ANDROID_HOME%\tools'

Ensure that the path to the Android SDK is correct to avoid any issues with development tools not being recognized.
Appending the SDK paths to the system variable 'Path' allows tools within the SDK to be accessed globally from the command line.
