How to create a keystore file in android studio?

How to create a keystore file in android studio? Its my first post for android studio and I don't know what a keystore file is and I don't know how to use it. How do I do this for android studio instead of eclipse because when I search on google I only get results for eclipse build if exactly the same as in android studio?

When I tried to create a keystore and entered a random file for the keystore path, I got an error: keytool error: java.lang.Exception: Keystore file exists, but is empty: C:\Users\king__000\Documents\KeyStore

Keystore is a binary file that can be used to sign an application that you have developed. This is the private key that you issue with the application. Android uses this certificate to identify the author of the application, and the certificate does not need to be signed by a certification authority.

go to your location and delete the blank key file and then create a new key file. It usually fails if an existing file exists.
