While extracting adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20140702 this error from windows 8
adt, android, eclipse, eclipse-adt, java
Solution
To further simplify the answer to this: the reason that you want to extract it to C: is that if you extract it to somewhere else (like you desktop) you will be adding characters to the file name. If you extract it as it is to the desktop, it will add "C:/users/username/desktop/adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20140702" to the paths of all of the files and put you at risk for exceeding the max path name size. If you do it straight to C: (or any drive) and give it a short name like android, you will only add C:/android to the path.
