I upgraded Android Studio 3.4 today. I am no longer able to run the the app. I have cleaned the project, restarted Android studio many times. I have also invalidated cache to no avail. I am getting the following error when installing the app:
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':app:transformDexWithInstantRunSlicesApkForDebug'.
> java.lang.RuntimeException: java.io.FileNotFoundException: E:\...\app\build\intermediates\instant_run_split_apk_resources\debug\instantRunSplitApkResourcesDebug\out\slice_1\resources_ap
Could anyone offer a tip on how to remedy this?
Edit: I have two projects with different behaviors related to this issue:
Switching off Instant Run as a workaround (File/Settings/Instant Run) seems to eliminate the problem.
According to OP it is possible to turn Instant Run back on without the problem recurring for some projects.
