when i export android
always pop up the this message

“please export outside the project folder!”

i know well export project outside folder

watching this video

Try looking at what the command line (the one that pops up on running Godot) says when you get that error.
It may give you some kind of clue.
It helped me once or twice.

Make sure it’s exported outside of the project root’s folder, not just a separate folder :slight_smile:

I did.
always message pop-up
This is a buggy.

I have used it well so far.

I’ve just run into this problem, and found that although I was exporting outside the project folder, I was exporting into a folder with an “engine.cfg” file in it. Export into a folder without an “engine.cfg” file in it, and this error will not appear.
