How to enter the Android Sdk Location when it is in "Library"

[Michael Doub]

I was able tp get to the AVD Manager thru Android Studio.   And you are 
correct that it is quite slow.   I am currently getting a failure that 
says that it cant find the package manager... Humm.

This is why I generally build a simple launcher application that I 
manually load on to the device and it fetchs the real app from 
dropbox.   I have never had much luck with the simulator.

Any suggestions for me to try?   I do have your hard link in place.
