Where is the plugin folder for Android Studio on Mac

I have installed a plugin which now crashes my Android Studio on start. Does someone know where Android Studio stores its downloaded plugin files, so I can delete it manually?

As for Mac Os: Android Studio plugin directories are /Applications/Android Studio.app/plugins and ~/Library/Application Support/AndroidStudioPreview(hidden). Perhaps if you find and delete the bad plugin folder Android Studio will be able to be started correctly.

As for Windows: go to : C:\Users%yourUserName%\AppData\Roaming\Google\AndroidStudio4.1\plugins

delete plugin at What do you expect the problem from.
