I am trying to clone a github repository from my account in my Android studio, but each time I try to clone it by
VCS -> get from version control -> URL, an error message pops up with message:
"Clone: Unable to create destination directory".
What can I do?
Go to your Android Studio installation directory (usually Program Files/Android/Android Studio).
Go to the bin folder.
Right click studio64.exe (or studio.exe if you're using the 32bit version) and run it as an administrator.
Now clone should work just fine.
I'm sure there is a better solution out there but right now, this should work.
Check your folder path.
In my case, my directory name had whitespace, so I changed the folder name from namu nikam to namunikam.
After that, github cloned the project.
The project error message was:
Cmd doesn't allow us to run commands with any space in between
Sometimes we use underscores between words, like namu_nikam.
