Is there another way to go about getting the appropriate sdk tools for my genymotion

Question

Whenever I put the SDK path in the ADB section of my genymotion, I get the error message that this folder does not contain any android SDK tools. But this is the same path used by my android studio Kenny/AppData/local/Android/SDK. Help please.

If you look at the genymotion.log file (located in ~/.Genymobile/genymotion.log), you should be able to understand what Genymotion is missing. The most common issue is that it cannot find either the adb or the aapt binaries.

If this is the case you can install them from Android Studio: open the SDK Manager, then search for "platform tools" (for adb) and "build tools" (for aapt).
