The problem with Xamarin is that it relies on the AndroidSDK
Fair enough you might think....
But the godamn Android SDK is bout 30GB for each API level!!!
Since I got a small 237GB main SSD, that's like a lot!

It seemed simple to move the folder from, say,
C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Android to D:\VisualStudio\Android
Then you inform Visual Studio with Tools > Options... > Xamarin > Android Settings, changing the DSK/NDK locations....

Well... NO! Mad | :mad: Cry | :((
Compilation keep failing with stubbornly spurious and stupid message like
C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk\platforms\android-23\android.jar missing! Mad | :mad:

Then the solution came to me in a (awakened) dream!
Mklink!

F.U. compiler!
mklink /d C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Android D:\VisualStudio\Android<br />

And voila!
Visual Studio is none the wiser!
Compilation succeeded! Poke tongue | ;-P
All in one Menu-Ribbon Bar
DirectX for WinRT/C# since 2013!
Taking over the world since 1371!
