    In Linux/*nix and OSX:

    1. Find the .android folder in your $HOME directory.
    2. In .android there should be a avd folder
    3. In the avd folder should be one or multiple .ini file and a corresponding *.avd virtual device folder.
    4. Delete both the *.ini file and the *.avd folder you want to get rid of.
    5. Return to the Android sdk and AVD manager.
