Answer 1

I have the same issue. I resolved it through the SDK manager under SDK Tools, click Show Package Details and then scroll under NDK (Side by side) and tick and apply the version you need. See image below:

My question for anyone is, why do we need this now for projects that do not require the NDK? As it turns out the NDK is a pre-existing requirement in the project I work on for a dependency!
