Safely remove/uninstall android-sdk-linux

I installed android-sdk-linux with the purpose to run an android program on ubuntu. The installation was successful. But for whatever reason, I want to remove it. Since I am very new to ubuntu, I don't know how to remove it safely.



I download android-sdk-linux in Downloads folder and I unzipped the file right there. I can locate the folder "android-sdk-linux". What if I just delete this folder? Is it safe?



For the above installation I installed another program called "Open JDK java 7 runtime" which I found inside the Ubuntu Software Center, and it is easy to remove it.



Thank you.

Because you have only extracted the archive, you can simply remove the folder:



rm ~/Downloads/android-sdk-linux

  • Sorry, I'm wrong, there is no additional folder in your home. I confused it.
