How to fix "Another Component is already using directory" when install the coponent in joomla


When you tried to install component via joomla admin panel and get some error like below:

Installation error:
file or directory in d:\hosting\member\username\joomlasubfolder\components\com_birdboard has been exist!


That is because the subfolder of the component has been created automatically before when trying installing.


Solution:
Need to delete the corresponding subfolders of the component under
../components/
../administrator/components/
In above case, you need to remove or rename folder \com_birdboard\
