Learn Android Programming - Installing Android Studio
I will walk you through installing Android Studio. The very first and most often missed step is make sure that you have installed and configured the Java Development kit properly. You will need to open the command prompt in order to check this. The easiest way to open the command prompt is to create a shortcut on your desktop to CMD.exe. Simply right-click on empty space of your deskop and select New, then Shortcut. Type in CMD then click Next, then click Finish. Open the command prompt and type in javac -version and press enter. You should see something that begins with javac followed by a version number. If you recieve an error message then you need to stop and follow the instructions in my Installing the Java Development Kit (JDK) tutorial, then continue once you have it installed and configured it properly. The second digit of the version number must be 7 or greater. My current version is 1.8.0_XX which means that I am running Java 8.
