sdkmanager not opening

Doing a fresh install on my new windows 10 machine. Downloaded the latest sdkmanager (4.0.10), and it gets flagged by windows defender smartscreen. If I choose 'run anyway', I get the following error: 

sdkmanager.exe - Application Error

The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000279). Click OK to close the application.

Parents
  • Does it run if you turn off windows defender? There was/is an issue with McAfee where the sdkmanager was falsely flagged to have a virus.  I was able to add sdkmanager.exe to an exclude list for virus scans and now it runs fine.
