keytool is missing from its jre/bin folder

I would like to use keytool.

As usually - as far as I know - its default install place with Android Studio is the following:

C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\jre\bin

Well, my folder is empty as you can see:

I have reinstalled Android Studio twice and this folder still contains nothing.

Any insights?

EDIT:

I've installed it for the third time, and now there is not even a "jre" folder inside the "Android Studio" folder:

Solution

  • I struggled with the exact same thing for days with no answers or no one else posting that they had the same struggle

    My keytool was in the jbr/bin folder. Call to that folderpath when using keytool in the cmd prompt (ala this page How can I find and run the keytool) -but in your case it should be something like:

    C:\Users[name]>C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\jbr\bin\keytool.exe" -genkey .....

    also; adding the path in the system environment variable did nothing for me, i had to manually type in the path in the prompt as you can see.
