Hi I have updated android studio to 3.2.1 recently, It is working fine with existing projects(java). Issue is when I am trying to create an new project (checking Include kotlin Support) then it is showing the following error
build failed:
Specified AAPT2 executable does not exist: C:\Users\umabhavania\.gradle\caches\transforms-1\files-1.1\aapt2-3.2.1-4818971-windows.jar\e602e2dea30bbf2cabd801a8d81b8cdd\aapt2-3.2.1-4818971-windows\aapt2.exe
I have searched for this and also tried following
deleting the directory under which it expected the aapt2 executable As mentioned in this answer
but found no difference, Please help me.
Following solved my issue under jar folder there are 3 folders, one of the folder consists of the aapt2.exe in it. I copied that file to other folder where I am getting error.
ex: path of jar: C:\Users\umabhavania\.gradle\caches\transforms-1\files-1.1\aapt2-3.2.1-4818971-windows.jar
error path:
C:\Users\umabhavania\.gradle\caches\transforms-1\files-1.1\aapt2-3.2.1-4818971-windows.jar\a57a698502c21bfe8cfc3ed6eb102b39\aapt2-3.2.1-4818971-windows
copied aapt2.exe file from 57f15fb82085ec9389484ff7e041344f folder to a57a698502c21bfe8cfc3ed6eb102b39
Hope this helps..
