I suddenly bump into the following error why trying to build my project
C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platforms\android-27\android.jar: error: Inconsistent information
:app:processDebugResources FAILED
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
I tried Rebuild Project and Invalidate Caches / Restart, but it didn't solve the problem.
I guess the SDK jar files are corrupted, and I probably need to reinstall the SDK.
How to reinstall Android Studio Platform SDK?
Goto Tools -> SDK Manager.
In the Android SDK -> SDK Platforms tab, check Show Package Details at the bottom.
Select the appropriate SDK (8.1 Oreo SDK 27 for my case), unchecked Android SDK Platform * and click OK.
To install the SDK again, just build the current project and it will automatically download and install the required SDK.
Configuration on demand is an incubating feature.
