Pycharm ======= Remove invisible interpreters ----------------------------- It may happen, that a previously added Python interpreter is not displayed on the *Show All* interpreter list (:menuselection:`Settings --> Project --> Project Interpreter --> Show All...`) though the interpreter still exists in the configuration. The effect is that naming an interpreter the same as such a invisible one, leads to an error: .. code-block:: none Cannot Save Settings Please specify a different SDK name The solution is to remove the entry from the SDK configuration file: .. tabs:: .. group-tab:: macOS ``~/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/PyCharm/options/jdk.table.xml`` .. group-tab:: Linux ``~/.config/JetBrains/PyCharm/options/jdk.table.xml`` .. group-tab:: Windows ``%APPDATA%\JetBrains\PyCharm\options\jdk.table.xml`` Open the file in a text editor. Remove the entire XML node which starts with .. code-block:: xml ... and save the file. Restart Pycharm to apply the changes.
