When trying to upgrade Android SDK Tools to revision 16, I am getting the following error:
Failed to rename directory C:\android-sdk-windows\tools to C:\android-sdk-windows\temp\ToolPackage.old01.
Done. Nothing was installed.
Nothing I try to do, including providing FULL permissions (in addition to the special permissions it already had) to Administrator, helps.
Also, I don't know of anything that is accessing those directories.
How do I fix this problem?

by default, the "Android Studio IDE" will be installed in " C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio ", and the "Android SDK" in " c:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk ".
Quick fix: Go to the Tools –> SDK manager –> SDK tools. Deselect Hide obsolete packages option on the right bottom and further install Android SDK Tools(obsolete). A new folder named Tools is now generated in the SDK directory.
If you don't use emulator then you can delete this folder.
This is how I fixed it in Windows 7:
Make a copy of the \tools folder, name it something like \copy. So you should have c:\android-sdk-windows\copy. Now run android.bat from the \copy folder with Admin privileges. This should prevent the issue with items currently being open in the \tools folder.
