I have already checked this and this question. Answers are either outdated or not correct.
15 March 2015 - Close project in Android Studio, close Android Studio, delete project using the OS file manager (delete from disk) and reopen Android Studio. Worked for me Android Studio v1.1, MS Windows.
You can always navigate to android studio workspace directory (where your projects are saved) and delete the folder yourself, the next time you open android studio that project will be deleted.
MAKE IT SIMPLE (Only 4 steps)
Open Project
Go to AndroidStudioProjects Folder
Right Click on the project name to delete
Click Delete

I managed to remove android studio completely from my computer then installed a new fresh copy.
here is how to remove android studio from your pc (windows):
The first step is to run the uninstaller. Open the Control Panel and under Programs, select Uninstall a Program. After that, click on "Android Studio" and press Uninstall. If you have multiple versions, uninstall them as well.
Step 2: Remove the Android Studio files
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. .AndroidStudio1.2, as well as .gradle and .m2 if they exist.
Then go to %APPDATA% and delete the JetBrains directory.
Finally, go to C:\Program Files and delete the Android directory.
Step 3: Remove SDK
To delete any remains of the SDK, go to %LOCALAPPDATA% and delete the Android directory.
Step 4: Delete Android Studio projects
Android Studio creates projects in a folder %USERPROFILE%\AndroidStudioProjects, which you may want to delete.
5- Delete this Android Studio folder located at C:\Users<user_name>\AppData\Local\Google
6- Delete this Android Studio folder located at C:\Users<user_name>\AppData\Roaming\Google.
Then install new fresh copy of android studio
I foolishly changed the name of the root folder for my android studio project, using my Win10 PC's File Explorer, and now I can't seem to figure out how to re-open the project in Android Studio 2.2.2 .
I changed that folder name back to the original name, still can't figure out how to open it.
All 2000+ files seem to be intact, and back where they were before my misadventures, but not sure how to get the IDE to allow me to work on this project?
I am returning the programming, after more than a year off...and am pretty much a novice Android programmer.
Thanks!!!
start deleting the .idea folder in the root of your project. Then, open your Android Studio select "Open an existing Android Studio project" (or File > Open...) and select your project's folder.
I have already seen this question.
But that's for Mac OS. I am using windows. Every time I create a new project or try to build/rebuild the project it freezes!! I have installed the latest version(9/10/2016). But things are getting worse. I want to completely remove it and install it as if I would be installing it for the first time. Any help be Appreciated.
To Completely Remove Android Studio from Windows:

Then go to %APPDATA% and delete the JetBrains directory.
Also delete the any AndroidStudio* directories that are in %LOCALAPPDATA%\Google and %APPDATA%\Google.
Finally, go to C:\Program Files and delete the Android directory.
Step 3: Remove SDK

Step 4: Delete Android Studio projects
Android Studio creates projects in a folder %USERPROFILE%\AndroidStudioProjects, which you may want to delete.
In 2021, If you are looking for uninstall.exe, the latest Android studio version doesn't come with an uninstaller. Download an older version of the Android studio from the Android studio download archive official LINK; you can download Android Studio 4.1.1.
Download the zip files, extract the uninstall.exe from it, and put it in your Android Studio folder; there is no need to install that older version.
UPDATE - 04/14/2022
Looks like the new version comes with unistall.exe now.
Tried on - Android Studio Bumblebee | 2021.1.1 Patch 3 for Windows 64-bit (April 2022)
I was having a problem installing the latest v4.1.2 as it was having an issue where after I start it, it shows my old blank project, so the things I did were:
Caution: Please move your SDK and projects to a separate location before following steps if you haven't. So it might save your time downloading SDKs and stuff.
1- Uninstall old Android Studio completely (from Control Panel -> Programs).
2- Delete this Android Studio folder located at C:\Users\\<user_name>\AppData\Local\Google
3- Delete this Android Studio folder located at C:\Users\\<user_name>\AppData\Roaming\Google
4- Delete these folders (.android ,.AndroidStudio*, .gradle) located at C:\Users\\<user_name>
After doing all this, I managed to have fresh updated Android Studio v4.1.2
First go to android studio folder on location that you installed it ( It’s usually in this path by default ; C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio, unless you change it when you install Android Studio). Find and run uninstall.exe file.
Wait until uninstallation complete successfully, just few minutes, and after click the close.
To delete any remains of Android Studio setting files, in File Explorer, go to C:\Users\%username%, and delete .android, .AndroidStudio(#version-number) and also .gradle, AndroidStudioProjects if they exist. If you want remain your projects, you’d like to keep AndroidStudioProjects folder.
Then, go to C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming and delete the JetBrains directory.
Note that AppData folder is hidden by default, to make visible it go to view tab and check hidden items in windows8 and10 ( in windows7 Select Folder Options, then select the View tab. Under Advanced settings, select Show hidden files, folders, and drives, and then select OK.
Done, you can remove Android Studio successfully, if you plan to delete SDK tools too, it is enough to remove SDK folder completely.
Firstly, uninstall Android Studio from the control panel using program and features.
Later you also need to enable displaying of hidden files and folders and delete the following:
C:/Users/${yourUserName}/AppData/Local/Android
If you do not have an uninstaller, follow the below steps:
Download and install an old version of Android Studio (eg: android-studio-ide-191.5977832-windows.exe aka Android Studio 3.5.2) from the download archives.
Copy (do not cut) and Paste the uninstall.exe from the installed Android Studio folder in your original Android Studio folder. Now, run the uninstall.exe which you just pasted, this will start the uninstall process for your original Android Studio.
After the original Android Studio is uninstalled, proceed to run the uninstaller in the old version of Android Studio that you downloaded.
After the old Android Studio is uninstalled, follow this to completely remove any leftover Android Studio related files, folders etc.
Now your system has no Android Studio.
In my case - Windows 10 Home, for removing previous settings, I had to delete AndroidStudioX from C:\Users\<Your User>\AppData\Roaming\Google as well.
Complementary to the 1st and 2nd upvoted answers, also take a look if anything like Android Studio folder remains at C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\ to avoid wrong references in future installations.
.android
check this folder in
C:\Users\user
its have an issue and fix it then restart android studio.
https://stackoverflow.com/a/39953746/3116336 is complete answer but you need to delete also %APPDATA%/Local/Google/Android
folder.
latest Android Studio in 2022, March
has an uninstall.exe in the root directory.
For me uninstalling from "Windows Remove Programms View" didn't work, failing with error popup.
But going to the installation directory and just executing uninstall.exe just works perfectly.
I tried multiple times to get a clean install without success.
I found if I still had the AndroidStudioProjects folder then Android would naturally go to my last project I was working on and start to build that project.
I made a copy of that folder and saved my code to the desktop. Then I deleted the AndroidStudioProjects folder and I had the option of a completely fresh install.
This was done after following this to the letter: https://stackoverflow.com/a/39953746/8860848
All the questions dealing with this are now outdated. I am simply trying to open an existing Android Studio project.
I have cloned a repository for a project from http://blog.stylingandroid.com/material-part-2/
I have all the files, I choose "Open an existing android studio project" and then choose the "Material" folder which is the root directory of the project. When the project loads, it is called "gradle" and there are no files showing in the project frame.
I am using the latest version of android studio and the latest build tools as of 19 Dec 2014.
How do I import a project?
From the Android Studio welcome screen, try "Import Non-Android Studio project". It sounds like exactly what wouldn't work, but it does.
On 1.5.1, there's no Import Non-Android Studio project as the accepted answer says, but chosing Import project (Eclipse ADT, Gradle, etc.) does the trick. Open an existing Android Studio project does not work. Still quite weird.
Click on file, then click on Open. select the main file that contains the project's name without opening the file.
then Gradle loads but still nothing happens and the welcome screen is shown. press the combined keys of Alt+1 then the project files will appear on the left side of the screen.
Sometimes it is tricky to open Android project. My tip is try to use
File -> Open... -> <path_to_settings.gradle>
I have created a new project using the latest version of Android Studio (0.2.2), this is a fresh install of studio. When I am in the project explorer view, it fails to show me any folders for my project. I should see a root project folder, and within it the .idea, gradle, and module folders, but they are not showing.
Here is what I expect to see (taken from the sample project created on first boot):
But here is what I see immediately after the project's creation:
I cannot figure out how to expose my project's folders! I do not want to develop without the project explorer, it's simply too much of a hassle. Did I create the project incorrectly, or am I missing some not-so-obvious setting somewhere?
Thanks.
The problem here is that I assumed android studio would create a module for the application. I assumed this because it asked me at the beginning for app name, module name, package, sdk info etc.
This assumption turned out to be false. You must create your first module manually through File > Project Structure. After that is done, the project explorer shows the files.
File -> Project Structure -> Modules
Add Button (Green plus button) click -> New Module Select
New Module window -> "Content root" change path button click to select "Project root file path"
Apply to change save and "OK" button exit.
In the project Explorer there is a drop down menu where you have selected project, now change it to project files.
I hope this will solve your problem. reply if it didn't.
You have created a new gradle project not a new android project.
Update your android studio tools to 0.2.3 - Go to Help menu - select check for update.
then Update your android sdk tools, android support repository, android support library and android build tools using android sdk manager.
And update some configuration in project structure. Go to File menu->project structure -> in projects tab select Android SDK as default sdk and in SDKs tab set correct path to updated android sdk.
Now restart android studio and try to create a new project and it should work fine.
(Noted for posterity) I had a similar issue come up recently, when importing an Eclipse android project. The issue was that the source folder wasn't added as such. I had to manually go into Project Structure -> Modules -> Sources and make sure that the "src" folder wasn't excluded and was marked a source folder.
Although this question is asked years ago. But now following simple solution worked for me.
Clicking 'Sync Project With Gradle files' makes all directories visible.
I had this exact same issue, there are some problem if you upgrade from 0.1.9 version to 0.2.0 in Windows.
Android Studio 0.2.0 Release
The solution (which worked for me) was to completely uninstall Android Studio and reinstall the 0.2.0 version.
I had the same problem today. Additionally, the IDE posted an "Assertion Error" into its event log.
Downloading and reinstalling the preview version, then applying the patch to 0.2.6 worked for me.
Change the SDK to a level that you have installed in the SDK manager. The SDK manager can be accessed from Tools -> Android -> SDK Manager. For me, Android Studio was packaged with API Level 17 but the new project wizard tried to target API Level 18.
