Please check that C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_261 contains a valid JDK installation.

You're pointing to the wrong Java install. You need to install jdk 1.8 and change the path in preferences to point to that install folder. "jre" is the wrong thing to use.

Download it from here : https://www.oracle.com/uk/java/technologies/javase/javase-jdk8-downloads.html

Hey I have the same issue and this makes sense.. but didn't it state in the guide following https://help.yoyogames.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001368727-Setting-Up-For-Android

"You do not need to install a JDK separately, so please don't just grab the latest version of Oracle Java just because. (Google recommend you use the copy they ship anyway, but also Oracle changed their licence for Java, which means you may now need to pay for commercial app development usage, so it's best to avoid that and stick with Google's tools...)"

So why should you download is separately? you should use the one google provided..

You shouldn't, you're replying to a thread that is a year old.

Just follow the guide, check and double check the what versions of things you installing against the Required SDKs article linked in the guide, follow it through slowly step by step and everything should work as expected.

I went through Android setup from scratch earlier tonight and the guide is all you need to get things working.
