G Graham Member Licensed User Longtime User Oct 29, 2013 #1 Last night I updated to Windows 8.1. I get the error below. B4A was working great on the original version of Windows 8. I already know some asking why in the hell would I do the upgrade? I am asking myself the same thing. Hopefully I can sort out this error.

Erel B4X founder Staff member Licensed User Longtime User Oct 30, 2013 #3 Some of the Android SDK tools fail when there is a space in the path. This is solved by calling a native Windows API named GetShortPathName. This method returns the "dos version" of the path. On some computers this method fails. In this case you will need to install Android SDK and Basic4android in a path without spaces (c:\b4a). Upvote 0
