Microsoft AndroidNKD64 folder taking up huge disk space. How to remove?

Issue

I have installed Visual Studio 2017 community version. I noticed a huge folder (2.2Gbytes) containing AndroidNDK64 has been created. Folder location is here;

C:\Microsoft\AndroidNDK64\android-ndk-r13b

I have uninstalled Xamarin from Visual Studio 2017 community. This folder remains here. Can I manually delete the folder without side effect later?

Solution

I will answer my own question. I renamed the folder to another name. Launch Visual Studio. Experiment with it and discovered no side effect. I have deleted the folder. So far, so good.

Please note that I have uninstalled Xamarin from Visual Studio before deleting the folder.
