Ok. I tried to install the SDK. Here is my situation. 
I have a 300GB main hard drive on my laptop with a 1TB external SSD.
My main HD is partitioned and the OS section is kept fairly small.
As a matter of practice I normally install all new software to the two Program 
Files directories on the SDD (drive F: in my setup). There are legacy programs 
still on the C: drive of course, and one of those is an earlier version of the 
Java JRE. "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\..." Until recently I had my JDE on my 
SSD - until I tried to install the Android SDK for my Windows platform (7 x64 
Home Professional). It tries to scan for Java and, even though the registry 
says "F:\Program Files\..." the SDK installer insists that Java is on the C 
drive. It finds one version - and quits looking. Naturally the Managers fail to 
load unless I re-install Java at the location that it prefers without regard to 
my actual setup.  How do I fix this so that my limited (and slower) HDD space 
is not being taken up just to accommodate the Android SDK? How do I tell it 
"Look you idiot, it's over THERE not where you stupidly decided it was". Is it 
a registry setting?
