Windows - Unable to emulate or run android build

I created a test project based on the tabs project template succesfully.
I then added the android platform succesfully
But when I try either running the project or emulating it, it seems to be always stuck on run.bat.
I don’t see any error and nothing happens.

I have made sure Java, ANT and the Android SDK are installed and their corresponding PATH and environment variables have been setup as per the docs. I have also uninstalled and re-installed everything but it’s still the same.
