Unity Android Build Error WIN32 Exception ZipAlign

Question

Every time I try to build my game for android, I get this error:

Error building Player: Win32Exception: 
ApplicationName='.../.../.../.../adt-bundle-mac-x86_64-20140624/sdk/tools/zipalign',
CommandLine='4"/.../.../.../.../Asteroid2(2)/Temp/StagingArea/Package.apk'". 
CurrentDirectory='Temp/StagingArea'

Any ideas? I'm stumped. I've redownloaded the SDK and that didn't help.

Find your copy of the Android SDK in explorer
Go to build-tools and choose a version (e.g.build-tools\19.1.0)
Copy zipalign.exe
Come back out of build-tools
Go into tools
Paste zipalign.exe

@BarneyChambers Do you have more than one version of the SDK installed? If so, try doing it for each. – OMGtechy Sep 09 '14 at 23:34
I only have one version of the SDK, I think I might just reinstall everything and try this fix again – Barney Chambers Sep 10 '14 at 00:23
@BarneyChambers also check where Unity is looking for the SDK, you might have it in the wrong directory. – OMGtechy Sep 10 '14 at 00:37
Thanks it worked for me! and i already shared with my blog readers at unity3diy – NabeelSaleem Aug 09 '15 at 19:45

You need to copy the zipalign tool from sdk/build-tools/android-{version}/ to sdk/tools/

In Unity go to Edit>Preferences>External Tools> in "Android SDK Location" select the folder of android-sdk (C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk) in my case.

To fix this error:

Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\build-tools\20.0.0 (you may have different version)
Copy zipalign.exe to C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\tools\ (or in your Android SDK path)

Found here

You need to copy zipalign as suggested at accepted answer; but if there are no zipalign file in related folder first you should go tools, run android and then install build-tools

I fixed this simply by updating "Tools->Android SDK Build-tools" in the Android SDK Manager to the latest version.
