Execution failed for task ':react-native-google-analytics-bridge:compileReleaseJavaWithJavac'. Could not find tools.jar

See original GitHub issue

Environment

Windows 10
Android - Note 5 running 6.0.1
Standard SDK 5.6.0, Premium SDK 2.6.0

Steps to reproduce

First made sure to Gradle the app:

C:\ReactMobileProj\react-native-starter-app\android (master -> origin)
λ .\gradlew clean
:app:clean UP-TO-DATE
:react-native-google-analytics-bridge:clean
:react-native-vector-icons:clean UP-TO-DATE

BUILD SUCCESSFUL

Then Run:

λ react-native run-android

Expected result

Expect that it loads the app on my phone

Actual result

Instead I get this:
