Android Studio 2.1 Open File or Project Dialog

As shown in the screenshot, there must be some configuration file to change that.

Looking for some hack. So that when I click the home button and it opens my specified directory. for windows platform.

  • Many default settings in Android Studio are insanely frustrating without any solution :(. The recent project button (below `Hide path` link) on the very right seems to be the only hope in this case which is bit helpful. – RBT Aug 08 '18 at 12:52

Create a project and save like that address: /home/USER/Projects/AndroidStudio/MyApplication

So, the new future projects will be: /home/USER/Projects/AndroidStudio.

This worked for me Android Studio 4.0.1:

  1. Close Android Studio.

  2. Navigate to C:\Users[Username].AndroidStudio4.0\config\options

  3. Locate recentProjects.xml and open it.

  4. Scroll down the page you will notice: <option name="lastProjectLocation" value="$USER_HOME$/AndroidStudioProjects" />

  5. Change $USER_HOME$/AndroidStudioProjects to your desired location lets say desktop: $USER_HOME$/Desktop/

  6. Reopen Android studio.

Android studio does not allow you to set the home directory. It is better to use recent project.
