Cannot resolve symbol 'Theme' in styles.xml (Android Studio)

Question

Since today, Android Studio can\'t find the AppCompat themes in styles.xml, but for example AppCompatActivity in code does get recognized. My Android Studio version

Answer 1

Only this worked for me

• Close project (File> Close Project)
• Import / Re-Open project again (NOT from Recent)

Error should be resolved now.

If that fails, try below-

• Open build.gradle, remove appcompact-v7 dependency and sync project.
• Add appcompact-v7 dependency and sync.
