For some weeks now I've been having strange compilation issues with Android Studio on Windows 10. Some of my builds fail with funny errors that have only 1-3 StackOverflow entries. When I switch to Linux (Pop!OS) it complies without errors apk gets installed on device. At some point I was frustrated where I spent a whole day trying to figure what's wrong only at night to code using Linux and it compiled. What's up with Android Dev on Windows?

I have had a few windows machines that only seemed to build project successfully after installing JDK separately, and setting the JAVA_HOME environment variable to point to the jdk install location

Also Windows doesn't like it when you bury your SDK in many subfolders.
Just because the filename to internal android resources gets veeery long and there seems to be some limit on it.
