Android Studio, SDK adb.exe

Question

In Android Studio 1.3.2

Android SDK adb.exe missing(AVG flagged adb.exe, tried copying only adb.exe from externally downloaded source to Android\sdk\platform-tools... but it says you have no permission and I can't bypass the permission),

gives me this error when trying to install Android SDK Platform-tools from sdk manager,

"revision 23.0.1 Stopping ADB server failed (code -1). Unzip failed: C:\Users\Personal\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platform-tools\adb.exe (Access is denied) Done. Nothing was installed."

Answer 1

The Problem was solved. I just had to remove adb.exe from AVG's virus vault. AVG seems to dislike everything about Android Studio

Answer 2

This happened to me just now with Android Studio 3.0.1 right after I updated it to test programs on my physical phone instead of a virtual one. It's made me a bit paranoid.

To get "instant run" to work I had to download a bunch of files having to do with my phone's OS (6.0.1 Marshmallow). I think this was the cause of the problem.
