Create a project and save like that address: /home/USER/Projects/AndroidStudio/MyApplication

So, the new future projects will be: /home/USER/Projects/AndroidStudio.

This worked for me Android Studio 4.0.1:

  1. Close Android Studio.

  2. Navigate to C:\Users[Username].AndroidStudio4.0\config\options

  3. Locate recentProjects.xml and open it.

  4. Scroll down the page you will notice: <option name="lastProjectLocation" value="$USER_HOME$/AndroidStudioProjects" />

  5. Change $USER_HOME$/AndroidStudioProjects to your desired location lets say desktop: $USER_HOME$/Desktop/

  6. Reopen Android studio.

Android studio does not allow you to set the home directory. It is better to use recent project.
