I was adjusting the font size of android studio (gui) in its settings, but (seems like) I typed something wrong and font size have changed to 100+. Now I can't see nothing more than a one symbol on the whole screen, and I can't navigate to settings to change it back. What I can do now? What file I have to modify since Android Studio isn't responding at all?

  • Hahaha, that's awesome. What OS are you on? You should be able to remove the IDE's files under your user directory. They should then be recreated with the default values. Also maybe mousewheel + ctrl works. – m02ph3u5 May 20 '16 at 20:16
  • Delete .android-studio2.1(the version may differ in your context) which is hidden directory in your home directory – erluxman May 20 '16 at 20:17

  • @LaxmanBhattarai thanks I've forgot about options in hidden directory .android, now that's alright!! For those who maybe got in same trouble, change font in .androidstudio2.1/config/options/ui.lnf.xml – user2369 May 20 '16 at 20:24

As Android Studio is basically IntelliJ + some extra stuff, here are docs you want to check:

https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/articles/206544519-Directories-used-by-the-IDE-to-store-settings-caches-plugins-and-logs

and substitute <PRODUCT> with AndroidStudio. You may either wipe the whole config directory or if you got some settings tweaked already, you may try to search config files for font or so as these are usually plain XML files.
