'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command

Question

I have set the environmental variables as:

and

as well as added them to the path, which calling echo %path%:

yet calling adb from command still yields the error:

'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command

What could be the cause of this issue?

Silly question, but your 'platform-tools' folder does contain adb, right? That folder hasn't been modified in any way? What happens when you call adb from inside the platform-tools folder? — Tyler, Apr 09 '16 at 00:49

remove the user variable you added System Variable PATH Variable name : PATH Variable Value : C:\Users\KJA\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platform-tools open a new terminal try echo %path%

restart android studio and try adb on android studio terminal
