I keep getting Android license status unknown when installing flutter on Windows

I am using Android Studio 3.6.1 on my windows 10 and there is no C:\Users%user%\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\tools\bin directory created…this is so weird

the step I take is to install Android SDK command line tool (latest) from SDK tool

After Android SDK command line tool (latest) installed, open terminal (i am using Git Bash) navigate to C:\Users\<YOUR_USERNAME_HERE>\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\cmdline-tools\latest\bin and execute ./sdkmanager.bat --licenses then accept all SDK package licences and expecting this should solve the problem…

Unfortunately this still does’t work with flutter doctor.. dang! Do you know how to solve it? This issue already reported here #51712
