This is a problem where the .android folder is being placed in the
wrong location on Vista.

When I do this:

android create avd -n android1.5 -t 2

the .android folder is placed at d:\.android.

This is the same when using the Eclipse ADT plugin.

However, the documentation states:

"By default, the android tool creates the AVD directory inside ... C:
\Users\<user>\.android\ on Windows Vista."

So something is clearly going wrong.

I assume its because I have relocated most of my special folders like
Desktop and Documents to the d:\ drive.

When I then do:

android list avds

it correctly shows the avd I have just created.

However, if I try to run the emulator then the avd cannot be found.

My workaround for this is to copy the d:\.android folder to C:\Users
\<user>\.android

In short, it looks as though the emulator and the android command are
using different logic to work out the default .android location.

I've tested this using the 1.5 and 2.0 SDKs.
