How to rename a project in Android Studio

I am currently using Android Studio 1.4.1, the latest version. I would like to distribute my program among my friends, but it was a school finale, so it was called FinalProject. I would like to rename it, however, no matter what I try (even using answers from this site), I cannot do it.

I tried right-clicking the root file on the breadcrumbs, but it says, "Unable to rename the root module." I really don't know what else I can do.

I tried to rename the parts in the idea, build.gradle and AndroidManifest.xml, but this did not work. If I also rename it in the manifest, it breaks the entire manifest.

This always works for me, it will change the name of the project, but be careful, it will not rename its internal packages .

  • Close everything on your screen.
  • Find your project using File Explorer (files, Finder, Windows Explorer or even Terminal: $ cd your/path/to/file ).
  • Rename your project using the file explorer (make sure you don’t get inside the project, just find it).
  • Open Android Studio.
  • Import a renamed project.

After that, Android Studio will automatically create all the necessary files.
