Apparently a small bug has sneaked in to the Android SDK Tools for revision 12. The emulator fails to start and the reason for this is that a path can’t be read because of a space.
When I have created an Android project with an Activity and GUI that I want to launch in the emulator I get this error message:
invalid command-line parameter: Files\Android\android-sdk\tools/emulator-arm.exe.
The reason for this is that the path to the SDK Location can’t be read due to a space character. My current Android SDK Location is C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk and the space between Program and Files is the problem.
Changing this to C:\PROGRA~1\Android\android-sdk will solve the problem (or PROGRA~2 or something else, it’s the 8-dot-3 name we want here).

Now try again and it should work!
