Can't uninstall Android Studio on Windows 10


I want to Uninstall Android Studio, but it's not showing in the control panel programs and features, and I can't find the uninstaller. Does anyone know how to uninstall it?

or reinstalling it for the matter?


Solution

  • I had the same issue. This is how I solved mine: I downloaded the zip file of an older Android Studio version from here (https://developer.android.com/studio/archive). For me, I picked Android Studio 4.1 Canary 2 released on Mar 9, 2019. I am guessing you can pick most of the older ones and it will have the uninstall.exe program in it. Without decompressing the zip file, I just opened the zip file found the uninstall.exe program at the bottom of list right away. I copied the uninstall.exe and pasted it on my current Android Studio file folder. Double clicked it, and Windows uninstalled the program completely. I made sure to check the box where you want to remove the Android User settings as well (up to you what you prefer).
