Android support in IDEA 2020.1 Ultimate is gone. (?)

Please double check Android plug-in is still enabled in your IDE Plug-in settings:

I've got the same problem.

The android plugin is enabled.

With Android plug-in enabled all the options are available:

I have it enabled. No joy.

https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-237177 << I filed a bug. Awaiting fix. Turns out I am not the only one who experience this problem.

I reinstalled IDEA. Now it can create / recognise android project. But "Tool | Android" menu is missing. I can find it in "Preferences | Appearance & Behavior | Menus and Toolbars" setting. I tried to create a shortcut for "Sync Project with Gradle Files" action. But it didn't execute.

 @... I tried a re-install too. But it did not help. (I am on OSX). When I am on build.gradle file I do get the icon for the Sync Project with Gradle, but it does not do anything because Android plugin does not see to be loaded, though it is checked under plugins. The bug reported above has been assigned right now. I am back on 2019.3 for now and hopefully fix in 2020.1.X will be coming soon. Or maybe we will have to wait till 2020.2 whenever that comes out. 

@... After a troubleshooting session with Serge Baranov we found a solution. At least for me. In my case. The ~/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/IntelliJIdea2020.1/plugins/ directory contained android-reactor-intellij-plugin.jar file. After removing it, and ~/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/IntelliJIdea2020.1/disabled_plugins.txt I restarted IDE. When it came back I was able add the Android SDK (there was none listed from previous 2019.3 setup for some reason) and after that the Android project loaded successfully. Hope this helps.

Same problem here, i.e. after updating to 2020.1 the support for Android is gone in my Intellij. The project is not recognized, so no Android SDK option in Project Structure and no Android Support Plugin in installed plugin list.

Technical Details:
- OSX 10.15.4
- IntellijIDEA Ultimate Edition

A U Nikiforoff the workaround described by you didn't worked for me, namely the file android-reactor-intellij-plugin.jar was already gone from plugins folder, but disabled_plugins.txt I removed myself.

Try removing all the non-bundled plug-ins.

The plugin directory doesn't contain android-reactor-intellij-plugin.jar on my computer. But deleting the plugin directory works for me. Thank you.

I have absolutely the same problem. After update 2019.3 -> 2020.1 Android plugin and projects don't work normal.

Sergey Volk does it help if you delete the plugins directory and disabled_plugins.txt file as described above?

Orif N. Sergey Volk android-reactor-intellij-plugin.jar is a third party plugin that I had. Perhaps you guys have some other third party plugins that cause the problem. Move them all to another directory and see if it solves the problem. Then add them back one by one. It would be nice to know what other plugins cause this problem so that JetBrains crew can flag them as incompatible. 

The same for me, I tried to disable all third party plugins, next i uninstalled it, after that i tried to remove ide settings.

Next I did fresh install, and still nothing.

Serge Baranov A U Nikiforoff I deleted everything (one by one) and it doesn't help. I did the same as Kamil Kalisz. Sad that I paid for Ultimate version and can't update it without problem....

Please share the logs using Help | Collect logs and diagnostic data.

I have the same problem. Anything related to android is gone.

Deleting third-party plug-ins is known to help.

I'm having the same issue. I've removed all the downloaded plugins, still no luck. After restarting IntelliJ the Android plugin is marked as "enabled" but it's in fact disabled (can't run any app or create new projects).

EDIT: I managed to let the Android plugin work by removing the `disabled_plugins.txt` file inside:

~/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/IntelliJIdea2020.1

Though that took several runs as the `disabled_plugins` file was recreated several times. 

same issue with windows ... but can't find the jar nor the disabled plugin text. got a demo tomorrow and needed this fixed ASAP

Nomar Morado What OS do you use? Which directories did you check for the plug-ins and for the disabled_plugins.txt file?

Nomar Morado try removing all plugins from ~/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/IntelliJIdea2020.1/plugins/ (or the equivalent directory if you are on windows) and remove ~/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/IntelliJIdea2020.1/disabled_plugins.txt (if present, again see what the equivalent directory is on windows, if you are on windows). Then restart IDE. Once it comes up open the Android project. At this point it may not recognize it. Go to Project Structure / Platform Settings / SDKs and add android SDK by pointing to the root directory where your Android SDK is. Restart IDE. After IDE is running again open your Android project and re-sync the gradle by clicking the circles button on the Gradle tab. The tool tip for that button is "Reimport all gradle projects". This should do it for you.

Windows 7 Enterprise Ed

Users/UserID/AppData/Local/JetBrains/IntelliJIdea2020.1/plugins

directory is empty

If the app was installed via Toolbox check this directory for the plug-ins:

C:\Users\UserID\AppData\Local\JetBrains\Toolbox\apps\IDEA-U\ch-1\201.6668.121.plugins\

The actual location will be visible in Help | Edit Custom VM Options after

-Didea.plugins.path=

Nomar Morado Also, Local is for caches directory, plug-ins are in Roaming:

C:\Users\UserID\AppData\Roaming\JetBrains\IntelliJIdea2020.1\plugins

See https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/2020.1/tuning-the-ide.html#plugins-directory

And disabled_plugins.txt would be in the config directory:

C:\Users\UserID\AppData\Roaming\JetBrains\IntelliJIdea2020.1

So, it appears you were looking in the wrong location?

so I renamed plugins to plugins.old. there was no disabled_plugins.txt. I started IntelliJ but got this error - Missing essential plugins: com.intellij.java and com.intelli.java.ide. Please reinstall from scratch.

Nomar Morado You should never rename IDEA_HOME\plugins. It contains the essential bundled plug-ins. You only need to check the locations specified above for the non-bundled plug-ins.

so found it under Roaming. but every time I start IntelliJ - the file shows up again?
