Thanksfor this Junian.
I was wondering, where are the Android AVD's deleted with this script? After a little research I discovered that they can be found in the hidden folder ~/.android/. Is it worth adding this?

Just the thought I had when I was reading the instructions @ https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/mac/uninstall and then I read your comment. You saved me a lot of work. Thanks!

@bbl-Laobu I usually remove the avd located at ~/.android/avd
You can safely remote that folder to delete all AVDs.

@backpacked you're welcome. They should add official script to remove, tho.

also need to add :
sudo rm -rf "/Applications/Xamarin Profiler.app"
rm -rf ~/Library/Developer/Xamarin
rm -rf ~/.android

Amazing I needed to get this from here. But, I appreciate it. Freed up 3GB for me.

thanks.
