Yeah, that’s what I tried originally, but that didn’t work. I get an error: “Cannot Save Settings: Please specify a different SDK name”. Based on quick research it means that the SDK is already set somewhere, but I’m not sure where. If I open an Elixir project, it warns me that there is no Elixir SDK and if I click on the corresponding button to “Set Elixir Module SDK” nothing happens.
