Description

I used this package to correctly generate adaptive icons, but now I have a new icon I want to use (non adaptive), and when I use the package it doesn't seem to overwrite the adaptive ones previously generated.

I don't want to wipe out my entire android directory as Ive made so many changes to the manifest files.

Is it possible to just wipe out the previously generated icon files so that a new write will work?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the package workflow with an adaptive icon followed by a non-adaptive icon, then inspect which generated Android icon files remain. Done means a later icon generation removes or overwrites the obsolete generated files without requiring the entire Android directory to be deleted.
