877 PointsHow do I get Android Studio Installation to find valid JDK (Java Development Kit) on my pc?
Installed the Java Environment after the Android Studio Install window asked me to browse to the 'JDK' where I installed it from the linked file to Java site (archive downloads), but it tells me it can't find it.
I browsed to Java.exe/bin/ , like it said after an error, and it still can't find it.
Are there other ways around this?

877 PointsWell this time I installed the 8u77 JDK from Java site, and changed the install dir. to jdk[version#], instead of the of the folder name that it was going to name it... jre[version#]. And also, I installed the JDK 8u77 in the save directory as my previous install of Java.
Now the software didn't ask for the path. It just installed Android Studio.
Thanks for your help Seth.
