Recently I upgraded from Windows 10 to Windows 11. But now when I open Android Studio only a blank file icon appears on the taskbar.
Is there any way to retrieve the original Android Studio icon?
I have also checked that the .ico file exists in C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\bin\studio.ico
I did this and it showed for me:
From start menu: right-click its icon.
Click More -> Open file location.
Right-lick the shortcut and choose Open file location.
From the opened directory, open the file studio.ico with any app.
And suddenly the taskbar refreshed and it showed.
You can click on Start and search for Android Studio ,then on the right side you will get an option of pin to taskbar, click on it. Now Android Studio icon will appear in Taskbar.
But why this happened?
This usually happens when the location of file has changed or it has been deleted! But why this happens during updating to Windows 11 in some PCs, only Microsoft knows!
This is what's working for me:
From start menu: right-click the icon.
Click More -> Open file location.
Right-lick the shortcut and open Properties.
Change Icon -> OK -> Close.
Do step 3 & 4 again, because the first time didn't change the icon (in my case).

I was trying to change the font of Android Studio. I selected a font and pressed Apply Changes button of the Dialog and from then onward my android studio looks like this.
I re-install the software which also doesn't solve the problem.
I also tried to change the theme font from the xml file located at C:\Users\tuser\.AndroidStudio1.5\config\colors\Obsidian\ which is also not working.
I Read, How to reset android studio font, and tried pressing shift twice and ctrl + shift + a, the search dialog appears like this
So, How can i restore the font?
Maybe this will help (I see you're using windows):
Go to your User Folder - on Windows 7/8 this would be:
[SYSDRIVE]:\Users[your username] (ex. C:\Users\JohnDoe)
In this folder there should be a folder called .AndroidStudio (notice
the period at the start - so on some OSes it would be hidden).
Delete this folder (or better yet, move it to a backup location - so
you can return it if something goes wrong).
This should reset your Android Studio settings to default.

I've just re-installed Git on my Win10 PC and tried to pin Git Bash to my taskbar.
For some reason now, when I open Bash from my taskbar shortcut, it displays duplicate icon on the taskbar. I tried to pin that icon but once I end the terminal session, that shortcut is deleted. I've tried multiple Win10 sites but most just say to repin the new icon.
Prior to updating I could pin it fine with no issues.
I did this for Windows 7:
Make sure there was no other (older) Git Bash appearing in Start Menu
Remove any existing pinned Git Bash from Taskbar
Launch Git Bash
Pin this launched window to Taskbar (instead of the one appearing in Start Menu)
In my case, launching git-bash.exe and pinning the result produced a shortcut to cmd.exe with no arguments, which just opened a regular command window. Creating a shortcut to git-bash.exe directly (either manually, or by pinning the existing Start Menu shortcut) caused the opened window to be separate from the pinned item.
What worked in my case (more manual):
Create a shortcut to this command: %windir%\system32\cmd.exe /c "C:\Program Files\Git\bin\bash.exe" --login
(Optional) "Change Icon...", then select the git-bash.exe location (one directory up from bash.exe), and click the icon selection area for the icon to show up and to select it.
Update the "Start in" value to %HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%
Pinning the git-bash.exe fixed the problem for me. This also fixed the problem with broken icon graphic.
NOTE! This was on Windows 7 - haven't tested on Win10!
Open Windows Explorer.
Navigate to C:\Program Files\Git.
Right click git-bash.exe, select Pin to Taskbar.
Shift-right click the newly pinned icon, select Properties.
Add to the end of the field Target: --cd-to-home
Set the value of the field Start in: %HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%
Press OK.
NOTE! This was on Windows 10
I don't know how it works but open the git-bash.exe file and pin the opened file on the taskbar
Do not pin the program which is not opened or else it wont work
None of the other solutions worked for me so here's what I did on Windows 10:
Open Windows Explorer
Navigate to C:\Program Files\Git
Right click on git-bash.exe
Right click on it and select Pin to Taskbar. This creates the first taskbar item.
Run git bash by clicking on the taskbar item. This creates the second taskbar item.
Pin the second taskbar item.
Open the properties (right click on the icon -> right click on the app name -> properties) of the second taskbar item and fix them:
Set Target to "C:\Program Files\Git\git-bash.exe" --cd-to-home
Set Start in to %HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%
Change the icon... Go to C:\Program Files\Git\ and select git-bash.exe and the icon.
Close the properties window and unpin the first taskbar item.
I have faced this problem. Here is a tried and tested solution. Very easy. Out of the 2 icons that you see, right-click on the inactive icon and do Unpin from taskbar. Then click on the active icon and do Pin to taskbar.
It's easy for Windows 10.
Open Windows Explorer
Navigate to C:\Program Files\Git
Select git bash
Select the 'Manage' option which appears under the field in purple 'Application Tools'
Select the 'Pin to Taskbar' option which shows on the far left
I opened Android Studio to find that the Terminal Tab is no longer present along the bottom left. Restoring to the default layout did not return it. I also can't seem to find any reference to it in the View or Window Tabs.
How do I get the to the Terminal tab in Android Studio?
Update:
Terminal is not present under View -> Tool Windows, but the Terminal Plugin is installed and enabled.
File > Settings > Plugins' - Search for "terminal"
Untick the check box -> Press Apply
Tick it again -> Press Apply -> Press OK
Restart Studio
Try the shortcut alt+F12. Or check the information under the heading
Running embedded local terminal
On the following link:jetbrains help
Toggling Tools-> Android-> Enable ADB Integration Off/On then restarting the IDE returned my Terminal Tab.
In Android Studio, I want to open another project, so I click File -> Open, but the original project has been closed.
What should I do to open the two projects at the same time?
To open multiple projects simultaneously in Android Studio,
go to Settings > Appearance & Behavior > System Settings,
in the Project Opening section,
choose Open project in new window.
Umh,I have solved my question.
First,I try to click the File->Find Action and search 'open new project'.Then I find a result and enter the settings window:Project opening.(So sad I have no reputation to post a picture)
Select the first check box.
After uninstalling VS2012, Blend for Visual Studio 2012 is still there (both in Start Menu and in Program Files (x86)\Visual Studio 11\Blend), even after I ran the installer with /uninstall /force (which removes all optional components). How can I remove it from my system? Is there an installer for Blend?
I think I might have found a way:
In C:\ProgramData\Package Cache\{57F20F04-014D-453F-B6A3-AE9485C4DFAB}v5.0.30709.0\packages\Blend_Core, right-click Blend_Core.msi and click Uninstall.
In C:\ProgramData\Package Cache\{532DBCC8-9468-435C-AEF6-30B7F50735A2}v5.0.30709.0\packages\Blend_LP, right-click Blend_LP.msi and click Uninstall.
I was more concerned with removing Blend from the start menu than removing it from my harddrive (because I kept opening blend accidentally when I want VS).
To do this, type blend in the start menu. Right-click on the Blend option that comes up, and click click 'Open file location' (For me, this opened C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Visual Studio 2013). Delete the link to blend from that location and it will stop appearing in the start menu.
