Gradle tool window missing.

Not sure what's wrong.

Check Intellijidea Help on how to open Gradle tool window:

Also when you loose something, hit Ctrl+Shift+A (for Win/Linux) and type "Gradle", Intellij will help you find it:

How do you reimport your gradle project?

It depends, on where your initial project was from.

If initially project was cloned from GitHub, and I feel I messed up it, I usually clone once more to new other directory, and then do:

  • File -> New -> Project From Existing Sources ...

Project also can be renamed in Intellijidea, so that later on you know which one is which:

  • File -> Project Structure -> Project Settings -> Project -> Project Name:

The same I guess should be for any other project.

The simplest solution may be

View->Tool windows-> Gradle

That was my problem. Im new to IDEA so I want sure how to open it myself.

When I first downloaded IDEA it had a small window icon in the bottom left that I had to click to show the toolbars on the left and right side of the IDE
