I see these folders in my username file and wonder if i could delete two of them:
.AndroidStudio1.2
.AndroidStudio1.3
.AndroidStudioPreview1.3
The StudioPreviewpreview1.3
takes 1.3 G
of storage and the Studio1.2
takes 773 MB
of storage. I'd like to know if any of these folders do anything now. I'm getting messages there's an even newer version available.
To delete any remains of Android Studio setting files, in File Explorer, go to your user folder ( %USERPROFILE% ), and delete . android , . AndroidStudio and any analogous directories with versions on the end, i.e. . AndroidStudio1.
After deleting all these folders, go to C:\Program Files and delete the Android folder. We have deleted all the Android Studio files now to delete any remains of SDK, go to %LOCALAPPDATA% and delete the Android folder.
After removing the program, some of its related processes still run on the computer. Some traces of the program can still can be found on the computer. Removing process running for a long time and does not come to the end.
They can be deleted at any time and Android Studio will still be runnable, but previous settings may be lost. As long as you selected "import previous settings" when updating Android Studio, deleting folders from older versions will do no harm at all.
YES, you can delete them! They are old config files. When you install the new version it asks you if you want to import old config or not. No matter the answer these folders remain. Don't delete the .android folder since that contains the AVDs.
To make sure that Android Studio is not using this you can check the last modified date on some of the files and directories.
