Installing Xamarin Mono for Android

Question

I am trying to install Xamarin Mono for Android but I am having a hard time. I installed the Java SDK and the Android SDK. Now when I run the Xamarin installer it says that it can not find the Android SDK then it goes on to download the SDK. After it gets to 100% it goes back to 0% and downloads again it keeps doing this over and over and never gets past this stage. Is there a way I can make it skip this step or a way to tell it that Android SDK is installed?

I had the same problem.

1. Right click on the setup.exe file
2. Select 'Run as Administrator.
