How to Install and Uninstall Plugins in Android Studio?

Android Studio provides a plethora of plugins to enhance functionality and productivity. Here's how to install and uninstall plugins in Android Studio:

Installing Plugins:

Open Android Studio.
Access the Plugins Menu:
- Go to File > Settings (on Windows/Linux).
- Go to Android Studio > Preferences (on macOS).
In the left panel of the Settings or Preferences window, select Plugins.
In the Plugins section, you'll see a tabbed interface with Marketplace and Installed tabs:
- Marketplace: This is where you can find new plugins to install.
- Installed: Lists all the plugins you've currently installed.
To install a new plugin, go to the Marketplace tab:
- Use the search bar at the top to find the plugin you're interested in.
- Once you find the plugin, click on the Install button next to it.
- Some plugins might require you to restart Android Studio to complete the installation.

Uninstalling Plugins:

Go to the Installed tab.
Find the plugin you wish to uninstall.
Click on the red Uninstall button (trash bin icon) next to the plugin name.
You may be prompted to restart Android Studio to complete the uninstallation process.

Note:

When considering new plugins, always ensure they're compatible with your version of Android Studio. Plugins developed for older versions might not work as expected in newer versions, and vice versa.
Not all plugins are made by JetBrains or Google. Be cautious about installing plugins from unfamiliar sources, as they might affect the stability and performance of your IDE.
