Possible to change where Android Virtual Devices are saved?

by

Add a new user environment variable (Windows 7):

  1. Start Menu > Control Panel > System > Advanced System Settings (on the left) > Environment Variables

  2. Add a new user variable (at the top) that points your home user directory:

    Variable name: ANDROID_SDK_HOME
    Variable value:
    a path to a directory of your choice

AVD Manager will use this directory to save its .android directory into it.

For those who may be interested, I blogged about my first foray into Android development…

Alternatively, you can use the Rapid Environment Editor to set the environment variables.
