Hi I still have unwanted apps in my menu in the android emulator. The projects which have been deleted from the workspace are there on the emulator. How do I clean the emulator?

+2  A: 

The easiest way is just to launch the emulator, go to settings -> applications. Then pick the unwanted applications and uninstall them.

Alternatively you can do adb -e shell while the emulator is running, find the .apk files in the file system (I think they're under /system/apps) and remove them manually.

One final solution is in Eclipse's Android Plugin (ADT), go to the file manager, find the .apk files and remove them.

Adi asks: How do you go to the file manager in ADT, please? I have found the apk in the File Explorer in the DDMS view, but I don't know how to delete it.

To delete it, after you select the file, you will notice there's a red minus icon on the top right corner of the panel. That should do the trick.
