Broken built tools in android SDK manager (missing aapt.exe )

3.8k Views Asked by At

I am using eclipse from a couple months and it was working fine until Avast antivirus alerts me that
appt.exe in sdk built-tools is not a secure program. I did not delete it but it seems like Avast deleted it automatically!

Now Eclipse is throwing this error: enter image description here

I opened my SDK manager and it shows a broken build-tools sdk manager


What is the best thing to do in this case without affecting the rest of resources?
Is it recommended to uninstall the build-tools then install them?
I know this might seem as an easy problem but a small mistake might cause losing the whole projects
