Answer 1

Since this is a file path error, I would suggest that you double check the ANDROID_HOME environment variables to make sure it is pointing correctly to the android SDK you have installed, following the guide at this link: https://reactnative.dev/docs/environment-setup . I would also advise that you check that you have installed the correct android SDKs when installing android studio.
