    The fast solution is:

    Go to the Build drop-down menu in the menu bar. You can see the Rebuild Project under the Clean Project. If you can’t find Rebuild Project, you can use Clean Project instead.

    Still not working? Try this:

    – Delete AndroidStudioSourceCode/build

    – Delete AndroidStudioSourceCode/debug

    – Delete AndroidStudioSourceCode/release

    – Delete AndroidStudioSourceCode/app/build

    – Delete AndroidStudioSourceCode/.gradle

    – Delete AndroidStudioSourceCode/.idea

    – Restart Android Studio

    If you use macOS, you might need to enable the view of hidden files first (https://ianlunn.co.uk/articles/quickly-showhide-hidden-files-mac-os-x-mavericks ). Note that you may not be able to delete the whole debug and release directories, but you can remove all of its contents.
