zipalign' is not recognized as an internal or external command

Question

I Wrote an android app. I type zipalign myApp.apk on cmd at windows 7 and I get:

zipalign' is not recognized as an internal or external command operable program or batch file

What is the problem

Answer 1

zipalign.exe can be found in the build tools (my path in my PC is C:\Users\[user name]\Developer\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20131030\sdk\build-tools), in my builds 19.1.0 and 20.0.0 folders. If you can't find it, fire up Windows Explorer and search for zipalign.exe, likely in C:\, unless you have installed in another drive.

Copy zipalign.exe to the tools folder, same level as build-tools (in my case, it is C:\Users\[user name]\Developer\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20131030\sdk\tools). Once done, I could compile successfully.
