After upgrading to Mac OS Catalina, Android Studio doesn't build, clean etc. It had stopped working.
When I try to clean project. I get warnings about delete files.
Unable to delete file: .../app/build/intermediates/proguard-files/proguard-android.txt-3.5.1
Here is what I tried.
Both solutions not working for me.
if I build apps from command line with command
sudo gradle assemble or sudo gradle clean
I'm able to build it but I cannot build with Android Studio.
I finally figured out. In project folder when right click on finder I clicked get info. In Sharing & Permissions section I see everyone has assess only read only. I switch it to everyone and click settings icon below and say "Apply to enclosed items..." It's working now. It wasn't related to android studio permissions, It's related to project files...
