    It could be appear for various reasons, some solutions I can suggest is bellow:

    1. Inspect Editor Settings:

    • Right Margin: Go to File > Settings > Editor > General > Appearance and
      uncheck "Show right margin"
    • Visual Guides and Indent Guides: In the same Appearance settings, uncheck
      "Show
      visual guides" and "Show indent guides."
    • Soft Wraps: If the line appears at a specific character length, consider
      adjusting the soft wrap settings in File > Settings > Editor > General > Soft
      Wraps.

    2. Reset Android Studio Settings:

    • Go to Help > Find Action (Ctrl+Shift+A or Cmd+Shift+A), type "Reset Settings" and select "Restore Default Settings"

    3. Reinstall Android Studio:

    • If none of the above solutions work, a complete reinstallation might be necessary. Uninstall Android Studio, delete any leftover files and folders, and then reinstall it from the official website.

    Hope it helps!

    You can hide the line: File > Settings > Editor > General > Appearance > Show hard wrap and visual guides.

    This line is present by default (even in earlier versions of Android Studio, this has nothing to do with Hedgehog Patch 1!) and has its origins in the time (~1950) when people still worked with punched cards and had to make a line break after 80 keystrokes. See the historical image on this Wikipedia page:

    Many programmers have gotten used to this and need it as a reminder to make a line break soon to avoid having to scroll the code horizontally.
