How do I clean up my android emulator of unwanted applications?

Issue

I still have unwanted apps in my menu in the android emulator. The projects which have been deleted from the workspace are there on the emulator. How do I clean the emulator?

Solution

The easiest way is just to launch the emulator, go to settings -> applications. Then pick the unwanted applications and uninstall them.

Alternatively you can do adb -e shell while the emulator is running, find the .apk files in the file system (I think they're under /system/apps) and remove them manually.

One final solution is in Eclipse's Android Plugin (ADT), go to the file manager, find the .apk files and remove them.
