DDMS throwing ADB error since SDK API 9 upgrade

I upgraded to Gingerbreak 2.3 SDK today and started receiving this error when I try to run DDMS:

Failed to get adb version: Cannot run program "adb": CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified.

How can I fix this? Running Windows 7, 64bit.

It seems that adb.exe is now in the SDK's platform-tools folder. I had to add the platform-tools folder to my PATH in my Environment Variables.
