How to install APK's on Windows using the virtual machine and the Android SDK

In the two previous video-tutorials, I taught you in the first one to how to install android sdk on windows, and in the second, how to create our own virtual machine to emulate mobile operating systeml of him celebrated company of Mountain View.

In this third tutorial of a total of three, I am going to teach you, using the Android SDK and the command console, to how to install APK's of the Android operating system in our Windows.

The first thing we will have to do is download the APK that we are going to use in this practical exercise. Once we have it downloaded, we will copy it to the route; C / Program Files / Android / android-sdk / platform-tools.

Paste path of the APK file

Now we will go to Start Menu and we will run our virtual machine, it is essential that we do it with administrator permission.

Start / All Programs / Android SDK Tools / AVD manager

We will wait for it to boot completely and we will unlock it through the side scroll bar.

Now we will go back to the start menu, and in the search bar we will write CMD and press Enter, with this a terminal will open:

Terminal command prompt

We will type cd .. until you reach the root directory or C/.

Once in the root directory, we will type the path to get to the directory platform-tools, which is the folder where we copy the APK.

Terminal path to platform-tools

cd Program Files

android cd

cd android-sdk

cd platform-tools

Once in the specified path, we will only have to execute the command adb installhe more the name of the application to install, in this case it would be:

adb install more in the full name of the APK file

adb install org.blackmart.market-2.apk click on Enter and we let the installation process finish.

Once i finish, we can close the terminal and we can verify that we have the application installed in the virtual machine.
