How to clear the list of recent projects in Android Studio?

Question

Is there a way to clean up recent projects in Android Studio 0.1.1?

Answer 1

All at once? No, but you can hover over the project name e hit Delete on the keyboard.

UPDATE

I don’t know if it existed or was added to the lastests version, but open any project and go to File > Reopen and select Clear List . Click OK in the confirmation dialog and the next time you open AS, the list of recent projects should be empty.

Answer 2

Focus on the list> Ctrl + A > Del > OK .

In the new Android Studio 2.3 2017, this feature has improved

File → Open Recent → Project Management

Then delete any of them of your choice by clicking on the crosses.

Answer 5

Note. This solution is for a newer version of Android Studio than the requested poster. I am adding this solution as this is the first link that appears on Google.

I am running Android Studio 1.5 on Windows 7, and none of the solutions above worked. The only way to remove projects from the recent list is to modify the recentProjects.xml file. I found it in C:\Users\{user name}\.AndroidStudio1.5\config\options\recentProjects.xml

I just deleted all the project parameter tags that I do not need. The structure looks like this:

 <application> <component name="RecentProjectsManager"> <option name="recentPaths"> <list> <option value="XXX> 

Answer 6

On Windows :

Android Studio 2.3.3

File → Close project to close the entire project that opens now. With a close project, you will be redirected to the Welcome to Android Studio page with a list of projects in the last list.

Just hover over the project you want to delete and click the close button to remove the project from the last list.

Answer 7

The easiest way, at least with versions 2.0 and later: select the first item and then select the last one from the list so that they all change color slightly, then right-click and select "Delete All" from the menu.

Answer 8

Go to the file in Android Studio, hover over "Open Recent" and go to the end of the list. At the end, click on "Project Management". A list of projects is displayed. Select the project you want by clicking "Manage" and select the projects you want to delete. After selection, right-click on the selected projects and click "Delete Selected from the Welcome Screen."

The choice can be made by pressing shift and selecting the project on top of the list and clicking at the end of the list and deleting as described above.
