[转]eclipse android : A project with that name already exists in the workspace

本文转自：http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3772779/a-project-with-that-name-already-exists-in-the-workspace-eclipse

I'm new to Eclipse/Java/Android

I have already created this project, but I wanted to start over.

1. deleted the HelloAndroid folder from my workspace folder
2. restarted Eclipse
3. now I can't create a project with the same name, because Finish is greyed out, and it gives me the following message: A project with that name already exists in the workspace eclipse

How can I completely delete my old HellowAndroid project from Eclipse?

You need to open up the Project Explorer view (it may already be open) and delete the project from within there.
