Android Question Compilation fails

[nibbo]

Hi All, getting a rather obscure message (see below) when I try to compile... any ideas?

Dex: B4AShared Error
Access to the path 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\tools\..\extras\b4a_local\unpacked-b4ashared-63792614870000\dex_v1' is denied.

I have tried to remove all read only permissions from the \android-sdk\tools folder onwards but still getting the error.

Thanks

Your SDK is 100% in the WRONG FOLDER!!

You should NOT place the SDK-Folder inside the Programfiles folder as it is an restricted folder.

DELETE YOUR SDK, B4A. Install it new. Follow the installationinstructions carefully; it will just work.
