title: Android Studio path to different directories
body: <p>Today I wanted to clean my SSD on which Windows is installed, and I found under
  <strong>C:\Users\SonneXo</strong> a folder (1.6 GB), which I wanted to change:
  <strong>.AndroidStudioPreview</strong>
  I searched for it, and the internet suggested me to change the settings in <strong>idea.properties</strong>, which I did:</p>
  
  <pre><code>#---------------------------------------------------------------------
  # Uncomment this option if you want to customize path to IDE config folder. Make sure you're using forward slashes.
  #---------------------------------------------------------------------
  D:/Android/.AndroidStudioPreview/config
  
  #---------------------------------------------------------------------
  # Uncomment this option if you want to customize path to IDE system folder. Make sure you're using forward slashes.
  #---------------------------------------------------------------------
  D:/Android/.AndroidStudioPreview/system
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I copied the complete folder from <strong>C:\Users\SonneXo.AndroidStudioPreview</strong> to <strong>D:\Android.AndroidStudioPreview</strong>, I started Android Studio and it told me I should import settings to complete the installation.</p>
  
  <p>So I guess something didnt went right. Same appeared as I removed the # from the instroductions, too.</p>
  
  <p>If I dont choose a folder with the settings to import, the sdk creates the <strong>.AndroidStudioPreview</strong> folder new, if I choose the new location, it seems to copy parts of it back to <strong>C:\Users\SonneXo</strong>.</p>
  
  <p>Someone out there with the same problem and a suggestion?</p>
  
  <p>So far have a nice sunday ;D</p>
