I just installed android studio and and platform tools and I cant call adb even though its clearly located in the same directory. I get this error:
zsh: command not found: adb
I'm new to the android SDK so this probably an easy fix. Any ideas?
Example execution:
agconti-Inspiron-5520 :: android-studio/sdk/platform-tools » adb 1 ↵
zsh: command not found: adb
agconti-Inspiron-5520 :: android-studio/sdk/platform-tools » ll 127 ↵

If the ADB command is not found, most likely you need to install the Android SDK Platform-Tools package to make it available in the command prompt. Also, the phone should be in USB debugging mode.
Set the path of adb into System Variables. You can find adb in "ADT Bundle/sdk/platform-tools" Set the path and restart the cmd n then try again. You can also go to the dir where adb.exe is located and do the same thing if you don't wanna set the PATH.
About this Error: (command not found adb) if you have not installed adb on your system or if the path of adb is incorrect. To check if adb installed or not open your terminal and run the below command: It will print the version of ADB and installation path but the only, adb is not in your user’s $PATH variable.
“The ADB is not recognized” error is common for people trying to set up ADB for the first time. This problem indicates that for some reason you cannot execute ADB commands in the command prompt on a Windows 11, and when you try to execute, you receive the following error message.
Is adb installed? To check, run the following command in Terminal: If that prints output, skip these following install steps and go straight to the final Terminal command I list: Run the following command on your Mac and restart your Terminal session: Note: If you've switched to zsh, the above command should use .zshenv rather than .bash_profile
Or follow the description under the screenshot. Step 1: Open command prompt on Windows computer. Step 2: Type " adb " and press Enter if it can work successfully. If not, go on to fix error. Step 3: Specify " ANDROID_PLATFORM_TOOLS " location with following command. Press Enter.
Use:
./adb
Unless . is in your path it won't be found. And for security, . shouldn't be in your path.
