Cordova ANDROID_HOME not found even already been added to environmental variables

Lately I can perform cordova commands successfully such as

cordova build --release android

But now it fails, saying ANDROID_HOME not found even I already added it on the windows environmental variables (below image)

enter image description here

I even tried to set the ANDROID_HOME and SDK tools, platform-tools path via windows command running as a administrator even it was already been set on the path.

set ANDROID_HOME=C:\Users\UI-UX-PC1\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk
set PATH=C:\Users\UI-UX-PC1\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\platform-tools
set PATH=C:\Users\UI-UX-PC1\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\tools

but no luck at all, any help, ideas please?

below is my cordova app config.xml

Solution

  • ANDROID_HOME is deprecated now instead of using ANDROID_HOME use ANDROID_SDK_ROOT

    as per Google android documentation -

    ANDROID_SDK_ROOT sets the path to the SDK installation directory. Once set, the value does not typically change, and can be shared by multiple users on the same machine. ANDROID_HOME, which also points to the SDK installation directory, is deprecated.

    If you continue to use it, the following rules apply:

    • If ANDROID_HOME is defined and contains a valid SDK installation, its value is used instead of the value in ANDROID_SDK_ROOT.
    • If ANDROID_HOME is not defined, the value in ANDROID_SDK_ROOT is used.
    • If ANDROID_HOME is defined but does not exist or does not contain a valid SDK installation, the value in ANDROID_SDK_ROOT is used instead.
