Could anyone tell me where the compiler looks for Zipalign. I have spent 2 days trying to get the compiler to find it! I installed android 27 on a new computer. The compiler failed saying zipalign file not found. I copied zipalign to the same folder as android.jar. I thought that was where the compiler would look for it.
I have installed b4a on many computers over the years and not had this problem before!

Follow the instructions here to setup a new SDK. The old SdkManager does not work anymore. Use the B4A SKDManager to setup a new one.
I paid to upgrade to the latest version so that I could use the B4A sdk manager! I have no idea why it won't work.
I have downloaded everything more than once!
If B4A is not able to find it then you probably have done something wrong. Or missed something.
You ARE using the new SDKManager?
You DID configure the IDE to use the new SDK (File-Configure paths)?
Yes I've found a file in there called zipalign not zipalign.exe. Unfortunately there is no android.jar file there so I can't set the android.jar path to it. I cannot understand how this could have happened!
1. As DonManfred wrote, please post a screenshot of B4A SdkManager and also of Tools - Configure Paths.
2. Please post the full text from the compilation window.
It is clear that you are not using B4A Sdk Manager. I recommend you to take your time and carefully follow the installation instructions: https://www.b4x.com/b4a.html
There is also a video that demonstrates all the required steps.
in C:\Android\ only the folder tools should be at start.... So i guess you did not copied the content of the ZIP. You extracted the zip to a folder named like the zip and this folder you copied????
