React native doctor persistently shows adb and java jdk missing

[JulianHSC]

Hello,

I have this problem:
C:\Z-Android\RN_Button>npx react-native doctor
Android
✖ Adb - No devices and/or emulators connected. Please create emulator with Android Studio or connect Android device.
✓ JDK - Required to compile Java code
✓ Android Studio - Required for building and installing your app on Android
✓ ANDROID_HOME - Environment variable that points to your Android SDK installation
✓ Gradlew - Build tool required for Android builds
✖ Android SDK - Required for building and installing your app on Android

• Versions found: N/A
• Version supported: 34.0.0
  Errors: 2
  Warnings: 1

Usage
› Press f to try to fix issues.
› Press e to try to fix errors.
› Press w to try to fix warnings.
› Press Enter to exit.
I've tried:
-Installing JRE compatible with jfk 17.
-JDK doesn't exist, it's in SDK. I've tried installing JDK 22 with 17 but native doctor will detect 22 and ignore 17. I was forced to uninstall jdk 22.
-Install SDK 34.0, 34.0.0r3, r2, r1 - native doctor still says SDK not detected.
-Inserted C:\Users(Users)\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\platform-tools in my system variables.
-Used "f", "e" and "w" to try fixing the problem. It just won't work.

What did i miss out?

Are you building an Android app or a Windows app? This repo is support for building Windows apps, but sounds like you're trying to do the former. Is that correct?

Hello Chris,
Yes, I'm trying to build an android app, not a Windows app. Your reply is partially too late as i just found out the solution. For unknown reasons, the path is not correct. Once i got the path correct - had to set in command prompt, it worked. You may check the next item i post.

For future reference, if you have problems building Android apps you should engage with this repo instead: https://github.com/facebook/react-native
