android - Could not find folder 'tools' inside SDK

Question

I am starting Android Development using Eclipse. I have downloaded all the required software but I am having the same problem as discussed here. Now I do not find the solution of the problem on that discussion so let me rewrite the problem again,

When I load Eclipse and create a new Android project, it keeps on waiting for the ADT to load. To figure out what is wrong I went to preferences and tried to put the location of the ADT I created in it but it keeps giving me this error when I put the address of ADT,

Could not find folder 'tools' inside SDK 'E:Documents and SettingsFahadandroid-sdks'..

I would be very thankful if someone could help me out with this problem.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: I created the foolder tools manually, now I am getting this error,

Answer 1

If you install Eclipse properly then:

1. Start Eclipse
2. From the menu bar, select Window > Preferences > Android
3. For Android location, browse the folder in which you install Android SDKs.
4. In Android SDKs folder, rename the folder platforms-tools to tools.
5. Select the folder Android SDKs through Preferences dialog box.
