Tried doing that .. however,
Version 1.1.3 comes up and
when I try installing it .. error message comes up:
"The system cannot find the path specified"

java.io.FileNotFoundException

c:\program files (x86)\android\android-sdk\tools\bin\...\...\extras\b4a_remote\com\android\support\constraint\constraint-layout-solver\1.1.3\constraint-layout-solver-1.1.3.prm

c:\program files (x86)\android\android-sdk\
Here is the problem. Program files is a restricted folder.

You should NOT install the SDK into this folder! User another Folder (maybe on another drive) for the SDK.
Do the setup again.

You can find the Setup-Instructions here. https://www.b4x.com/b4a.html
You also can watch this Video as it describes it clearly.

Start with a new Blank folder like you see in the Video.

Ok .. I figured out the problem:
The directory:
c:\program files (x86)\android\android-sdk\extras\b4a_remote\com\android\support\

Thank You Don.
I ended up creating 2 directories with write/read access to:

c:\program files (x86)\android\android-sdk\extras\b4a_remote\androidx\constraintlayout
and
c:\program files (x86)\android\android-sdk\extras\b4a_remote\androidx\constraintlayout-solver

It installed the files into those directories with no problem.

How do you redirect the installation into another directory that you specify?

Look at the video!
Create a folder whereever you want. Copy the tools folder from the zip to this folder. start b4a sdk manager and select the path to the sdkmanager.bat inside [yourfolder]\tools\bin\
