Hello All,
First time user with B4A, Working through the first tutorial, two random numbers, enter result. I get the following error:

could not read ok from ADB Server
* failed to start daemon
adb.exe: failed to check server version: cannot connect to daemon

I searched post, and found one solved by running as administrator, I am.
I tried changing permissions on ...\Temp folder to read/write.

Where is the path set for the adb.log file? Can I change it?

Solved.

Found a file:
C:\Users\Robert\AppData\Local\Temp\adb.log
Already existing, and did not pay close attention to the date stamp of 04/12/2019, I installed B4A on 09/10/2020. Must have been left over from an attempt to program Android last year, with a different program.
Deleted that old adb.log file, and BAM! now I can install the tutorial programs, and now the WYSIWYG works also finally.

B4A does not trap the error "adb.log file already exists, overwrite? Y/N?"

OK, back to the tutorials, after 2 days of struggle on that....
