Android Studio 0.8.14 Windows 7 doesn't seem to include SDK
I just did a fresh install of windows 7 pro on my system and wanted to start android studio again. I downloaded and installed the JDK (1.8.0_25), set the JAVA_HOME var to "C: \ Program Files (x86) \ Java \ jdk1.8.0_25" and then shipped the latest android build. So I download the .zip from http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/studio.html
and follow the instructions to extract it and run the studio.exe file. This all works, but there is no setup wizard or whatever, it just launches the Android version of Android, however, it doesn't seem to add any SDK that I can find anywhere on my machine. From the "Welcome to Android Studio" window, if I click "configure" the SDK manager is not available. I've tried various things for setting the sdk path in projectStructure but it seems to work.
I've been on the sidelines of android dev for months and the android site always used the .exe setup file for me, what happens to change to only .zip?
I've spent most of the day trying to figure this out, and I'm pretty much at the end of my rope for ideas.
Thanks a lot for any help Kyle

I just had this happen to me. I decided to go this over here and download the Windows SDK offline installer.
Then I opened android studio, clicked Configure -> Project Defaults -> Project Structure
and pointed android studio to the SDK installation directory.
So far this works, but I am still loading all the images.
