I am trying to use the Android Device Monitor within Android Studio in Ubuntu, somehow I managed to remove all views.

I have tried resetting the perspectives, Window->Show View->(Any View), and even re-installing Android Studio but nothing shows up.

In one of the earlier SO post, there was a solution shared, now i am trying to find the corresponding Ubuntu file location corresponding to the file shared earlier in this post.

Can some body help me here

now i am trying to find the corresponding Ubuntu file location corresponding to the file shared earlier in this post.

That would be ~/.android/monitor-workspace/.

In general, the .android directory will be in ~ on OS X and Linux, and in %USERPROFILE%\ (e.g., C:\Users\my_user\) on Windows.

  • Do you know what is the exact path, i cant find any thing even close to the above one – Shiv Dec 10 '14 at 15:46
  • @Shiv: "Do you know what is the exact path" -- that is the exact path. – CommonsWare Dec 10 '14 at 16:08
  • This is the exact path in Ubuntu Home\.android\monitor-workspace. Hope this helps some one – Shiv Dec 10 '14 at 16:14
  • @Shiv: That is not a path in Ubuntu. "Home" is not a the name of some directory. It is the name of a "place" in the Nautilus file browser that you are presumably using. In the actual Linux filesystem, what Nautilus shows as "Home" maps to the shorthand of `~/`, which in turn maps to a directory under `/home/` tied to your user ID (e.g., `home/shiv/`). Please take the time to learn the operating system that you are using for development. – CommonsWare Dec 10 '14 at 16:19
  • Thanks @CommonsWare, 'you are right, the full path is /home/(username)/.android – Shiv Dec 10 '14 at 16:24

Finally got this. In Ubuntu, these are hidden files, so you need to use Ctrl + H to view them. After deleting the files from the below path, my device monitor is back.

home/my_user/.android/monitor-workspace
