Good day everyone
I have been trying to install flutter and android studio on my laptop. The installation of android studio and flutter and dart was done successfully on windows 10, but flutter doctor showed that flutter and dart plugin were not installed. I have deleted and re-installed. I still got the same errors from flutter doctor. I followed the installation process on Flutter Installation documentations and I have listens to tons of videos or YouTube, but still couldn't get it done. Can anyone assist me to resolve this problem. Please check this attached screenshot. I look forward to your response. Thank you.

Can you contact me on what's app? 08035088147. Let's us chrome remote desktop to setup. Few people have complained about that. Your studio version is most likely causing it bro.

I have the same problem. Android Studio shows the plugins were not installed. However, I can develop my Flutter app with Android Studio without an issue.

Are you facing any problem other than "flutter doctor" not showing plugins properly?

Agree, Tomo. Flutter Stable 1.22.4 has a minor issue reporting the AS Flutter and Dart plugins as not present, when they actually are. This is because AS4.1 changed where it keeps its config files and this version of Flutter stills looks in the old folder. It is fixed in Flutter beta and dev.

@abhi there is no other compatibility issue as far as I can tell. I have been working just fine in Win 10 with AS 4.0 and AS 4.1 all the time. Here's my flutter doctor -v

Hai Graham Dickinson, 

Here is my flutter doctor -v, its shows that  Android license status is also unknown.  
 if I run  flutter doctor --android-licenses then it is reporting that   Android sdkmanager tool not found , if I uninstall and reinstall some obsolete Android SDK tools,  then it will be okay, and license status will show as all licenses accepted,  but this is happening after each run.. every time I have to uninstall and reinstall Android SDK tools  for making android licenses to be accepted by flutter.

Hi ,

As you see from my flutter doctor, I have Android SDK in its own folder under root on my second drive. I have never tried keeping the sdk in the AppData\Local\ path. It could be that this is causing a problem. I would suggest you try moving the sdk to a new folder called. C:\Android. The contents of the C:\Android folder should look like this:
image.png
Then in Android Studio 4.1 open the SDK Manager from the Tools menu at the top of the screen. You will see this dialogue:
image.png

As you can see at the top is a field called Android SDK Location which should show your old SDK location. Click on the Edit link on the right and you will see this dialogue:
image.png
Down at the bottom, click on the folder icon on the right of the Android SDK Location field,select C:\Android from the explorer and click OK. Then click NEXT and follow the guidance it gives you until FINISH button.
Hope that helps.

PPS...when I check my path, I don't have the Adroid SDK folder in it (I had forgotten). What I do have is two Enviroment variables in the User variables section as per this screenshot:
image.png
I suggest you also create those to point at wherever you decide to move the SDK to (they may even solve your problem without moving the SDK if you create them ponting to AppData/Local/Android/SDK)

ANDROID_HOME is an old fashioned way to settle Android Studio
Please keep informed about recent updates of the IDE you are using. Have a fresher and younger approach in what you are doing. By the way, older generations do not work on Vista or Android Studio 1, they just by experience know how to keep updated.
NONE of Flutter's files is INCOMPATIBLE with Windows 10.

Using Windows requires a young and up-to-date mind, keep that in mind.

Thanks. I guess you are young and vibrant and all knowledgeable. Happy for you and impressed how well you keep your cool on this group. Anyway, from an old guy, check this documentation:  https://developer.android.com/studio/command-line/variables

Think that I am out of ideas...though you do seem to be running Flutter doctor from a directory that is not your project directory but don't think that is the issue. Did Android Studio let you change the sdk location as per my screen shots without any issues?
Have you rebooted? Again I don't think that is the issue.
Hate to say it but I would go for a clean install of AS4.1 having uninstalled it first. Then decide where you want to put it, allow the default and set the env variables to that default directory.

I copy pasted the contents from the old sdk folder to the current sdk folder (C:\ Android).. whether that is causing the problem..??? (I don't think so as when I rebooted AS, it corrected the indices )

I know that is what the others said, and what you now think. 

However, the inescapable fact is that AS4.1 is working just fine with Flutter for me and many, many others. So, empirically, the problem has to be with your installation of them. Sorry and all that.

My flutter doctor  'flutter doctor --android-licenses' reports that,  Android sdkmanager tool not found at C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\tools\bin\sdkmanager, actually that is my old sdk path, why it is not updating to new path ???

ok now I have configured the path using ' flutter config --android-sdk "C:\Android" , butt now 'flutter doctor --android-licenses' reports that , Android sdkmanager tool not found (C:\Android\tools\bin\sdkmanager). I know if I reinstall android sdk tools obsolete packages it will be okay , but on next boot this will happen again

Is C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\tools\bin\sdk manager in your path env variable? 
To be honest, by now, I would be uninstalling flutter, AS, vscode, dart, whatever else related. Checking that no vestiges of them exist in any directory on my hard-drive. Rebooting and then following every step in the Flutter installation documentation very carefully.

I hear you and feel your pain.

However, given that my Win 10 flutter development environment is working fine and that of many others is, the problem has to be with your implementation of the installation. 

Sorry if you don't believe that to be the case but there is just no way around that conclusion. 

I really advise you to try again from a clean start and don't hurry, read every word of the docs.

I certainly think that I am not alone because I saw several youtube videos there even the tutors were unable to install flutter correctectly in windows 10, as per my knowledge the installation process can be summarized as follows 

1. download flutter+ AS+ Git
2.  extract flutter in a folder and put the path in environmental variables
3. install dart and flutter plugins in AS.

Then it should work.. right ???.. if that is not happening means something is wrong with the products..
