  <p>I already have this in my app gradle :</p>
  <pre><code>   lintOptions {
          abortOnError false
          checkReleaseBuilds false
      }
  </code></pre>
  <p>and even on doing the <strong>Project clean</strong> from the menu , on rebuilding it again throws this error.
  only way to get out of this error is to delete the app/build and Project/build file.</p>
  <p>any simple fix for this?</p>
  <p>I am on Android Studio 4.2.2</p>
  <p>and below is my app gradle settings :</p>
  <pre><code> compileSdkVersion 30
      buildToolsVersion &quot;31.0.0&quot;
  
      defaultConfig {
          applicationId &quot;com.myapp.getangle&quot;
