I've installed Android Studio in Windows 10. When I open Android SDK Manager and try to install 2.2 SDK platform I have the problem. It's not compatible with Windows and I can't install it. I've attached a screen shot of the problem. I can't install any version below 4.0 (API 14).

Allright I had the same problem but managed to fix it (I believe)

Found a website that has standalone downloads for each version

If you download them and place them into the android-sdk/platforms folder named as "android-APINUMBER" for example version 2.1 would be "android-7" then you reload the manager and they will show as installed, hope that helps and also I hope they make them downloadable again.
