directory, and delete therepositories.cfg
file. Then, restart the Android SDK manager or the specific SDK tool you were using. The file should be recreated with default configurations.Repair or Reinstall the Android SDK: If the issue persists, you might consider repairing or reinstalling the Android SDK. This can help ensure that all necessary files and configurations are in place. Uninstall the Android SDK using the SDK Manager or by manually deleting the installation directory, and then reinstall the SDK using the official Android SDK tools.
Check for File Corruption: It's possible that the
