Answer 1

I was getting this error also and Ubuntu suggested me to install it so I installed* it and this worked in my case.
* - sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb

Note:x64 architecture

Answer 2

In my case "adb" is located in "~/Android/Sdk/platform-tools/"

the following command solved the problem:

export PATH=$PATH:~/Android/Sdk/platform-tools/

Answer 3

sudo apt install adb

in your pc adb not installed.

Try this, working for me

Answer 6

You need to add $ANDROID_SDK/platform-tools to your PATH, where $ANDROID_SDK is wherever you installed the Android SDK.
