Installing ADB on Windows 8: A Step-by-Step Guide

Installing Android Debug Bridge (ADB) on your Windows 8 computer can be a frustrating experience, especially if you're new to Android development. However, with this step-by-step guide, you'll be able to install ADB successfully and start debugging your Android apps.

One common issue that developers face when installing ADB is the error code 43 in Device Manager. This error occurs when Windows fails to enumerate the device, making it impossible to install the ADB driver. To resolve this issue, you need to install a Compatibility update from Microsoft.

To begin, download the Compatibility update from Windows and follow these steps:

1. Install the compatibility update

2. Restart your computer

3. Open Device Manager and check if the device is enumerated correctly

If you're still experiencing issues with error code 43 after installing the compatibility update, don't worry! There's a simple solution to this problem.
