Open eclipse ---> Windows ---> preferences ---> Android ---> build
Check the default debug keystore location. my options are c: \ Users \ aboy123 \. Android \ Debug. keystore.

2. Run the following command in cmd:

There are two formats:

The first type is:

Keytool-list-keystore ~ /. Android/debug. keystore

The second type is:

Keytool-list-alias androiddebugkey-keystore "path"
-Storepass Android-keypass android

The red path indicates your keystore location, for example, C: \ Users \ aboy123 \. Android \ Debug. keystore. Note that you must have double quotation marks; otherwise, an error will be reported: keytool
