To clean up the Code Sight configuration files (IntelliJ)

Code Sight saves information in a folder with a number of configuration files. After you uninstall the plug-in, you might want to remove this. There is also a file that saves the current state of the plug-in.

1. Open a command window or terminal.
2. Remove the Black Duck desktop/ folder. The default location of this directory/folder depends on the operating system you are using. See the following table:

   Platform	Location of Desktop directory/folder
   Linux or Mac	/Users/<username>/.blackduck/desktop/
   Windows	C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Roaming\BlackDuck\desktop\

   Some sites install the desktop/ folder in a custom location. If it is not in the default location, consult your system administrator.

3. Remove the code_sight_state.xml files.

   Code Sight generates a code_sight_state.xml file for each source-code project that you scan. Each of these files is saved in a directory/folder named .idea/, which is created inside the project folder for each project (code base) that you analyze by using Code Sight within IntelliJ.

4. Remove the code_sight_plugin_state.xml files.

   There is one of these for each JetBrains IDE that you have installed. The default location depends on the operating system that you use. See the following table:

   Platform	Location of Desktop directory/folder
   Linux	~/.config/JetBrains/<product><version>/config/options
   Mac	~/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/<product><version>/config/options
   Windows	%APPDATA%\JetBrains\<product><version>\config\options\
