It looks like adb.exe holds a lock to the problematic directory. When you start Eclipse, adb.exe is started. And when you kill adb.exe, Eclipse tries to start adb.exe again. After 11 tries, it is successful.
I did the manual install. When i start android.bat right now, it looks like all is fine. However, when i click on 'Available Packages', i get the message "Some packages were found but are not compatible updates."
