title: Can I safely delete build\tmp\expandedArchives folder in my Android Studio project?
body: <p>I am unable to move my Gradle based project to another location, as Windows keeps giving me the error "file path too long", though I see I can work on that long file name inside Android Studio without a hitch. I found that the contents of this folder are to blame:</p>
  
  <p><code>AndroidProject \app\build\tmp\expandedArchives</code></p>
  
  <p>The expanded archives looks like it opens up all the dependencies of the app over here with very long folder &amp; file names. Some examples here:</p>
  
  <pre><code>\app\build\tmp\expandedArchives\classes.jar_7qh18304vjdra8i85sw4cqx14\android\support\compat...
  \app\build\tmp\expandedArchives\picasso-2.5.2.jar_w4l5rlwig2lthm63umx5rllh\com\picasso\...
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Given that it is stored inside <code>tmp</code>, can I safely delete this folder &amp; move my project folder? Will it create any problem resurrecting my project from the new location?</p>
