Accepted Answer

I guess it's because you set ANDROID_HOME to the wrong path.

ANDROID_HOME must be set to the root of the android SDK, not to tools folder:

```
SET ANDROID_HOME=C:\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20140702\sdk
```

But the tools folder must be in the path.

```
SET PATH=%PATH%;%ANDROID_HOME%	ools
```

(of course use windows settings to set env vars, don't do it in cmd, that was just to explain more clearly)
