Hi, I encountered this issue and was able to resolve by doing these:

  1. Download JDK 8 here
  2. Install the JDK 8 and setup your system variables - similar to this
  3. In your Godot project, delete the “android” folder
  4. Delete your initial debug.keystore from the sdk folder
  5. Accept the licenses and install platform-tools via command line/powershell by following the steps here (NOTE: I still did this regardless if I installed the Android Studio itself)
  6. Generate the keystore again by following enter link description here
  7. In Godot, go to Editor|Editor Settings|Android and make sure that your Jarsigner is pointing to the JDK 8 folder
  8. Try exporting again
