There are several possible solutions to the problem of images and sdk not being downloaded when using the android sdk and tools in Visual Studio 2022:

1. Check your internet connection: Make sure you have a stable and fast internet connection. Slow or intermittent internet can cause problems with downloading files.

2. Check your proxy settings: If you are behind a firewall, make sure your proxy settings are configured correctly. You can check this by going to Settings > Network & Internet > Proxy.

3. Update Visual Studio: Make sure you are running the latest version of Visual Studio. Click on Help > Check for Update to see if any updates are available.

4. Update the Android SDK: Make sure you have the latest Android SDK installed. You can check this by going to Tools > Android SDK Manager in Visual Studio.

5. Download the missing files manually: If the downloads are still not working, you can try downloading the missing files manually from the Android SDK website and then importing them into Visual Studio.

6. Restart Visual Studio: Sometimes a simple restart can fix issues like this.

7. Clear Visual Studio cache: You can try clearing the Visual Studio cache by going to Tools > Options > Environment > General and clicking on the Clear Cache button.

8. Disable any antivirus or firewall: Sometimes antivirus or firewall software can interfere with downloads. Try disabling them temporarily to see if that fixes the issue.
