Android Studio Update stuck cleaning up?

android, android-studio

Solution

I've also experienced this with the latest updates (0.8.1 - 0.8.4), both in Windows 7 and Windows 8.1, but there's actually nothing wrong.

The "Cleaning Up" part takes an amazingly long time (literally, several minutes), but it finishes OK. You just need to wait. :)

Very surprising for what would seem to be such a small update (at least judging from the downloaded file size).

Problem

I just downloaded and installed Android Studio 0.8. When I ran it, I received a notice that there was an update. I immediately downloaded the patch and it auto-ran. After patching, the dialog titled "Update" appears to be stuck with the following prompt: Updating Android Studio (build 135.1245622) to Android Studio (build.135.1248636) (progress bar animation) Cleaning Up If I click on the Cancel button, I get a new Yes/No dialog box saying: The patch has not been applied yet. Are you sure you want to abort the operation? How can I fix this problem? Running on Windows 8.1 JDK version 1.8.0_05
