eclipse creating new android application project

Question

When I try to create new android application project in eclipse I generate another project named appcompat_v7 i tried several times and it is still same. Odd thing is both have error because I can see a red !.

How to avoid auto generating this project and also avoid the ! on the main folder

now you have to waste another several hours resolving that issue....so my suggestion is use android studio which is now recommend by google itself — kgandroid

Eclipse for Android in 2016? It's not a sin but no longer maintained and that might cause you extra pain resolving things. — Enzokie

when you create a new project in eclipse make sure that your minimum API version is 14.Then it will not create the appcompact folder.
