Error:Timeout waiting to lock buildscript class cache for build file when change minSdkVersion

Question

I try to change minSdkVersion in build.gradle (Module: app) in Android Studio and get next error:

Error:Timeout waitin         


        

Answer 1

Sometimes it was notable to delete filehash.lock file and it will throw an error unable to delete file. So do the following steps

For Windows machine:

Open Task Manager(Ctrl-Alt-Delete and check Process)

-> If you run two instance of android studio, Close One (End Task)

-> Then close OpenJDK Platform Binary

-> Gradle sync now on AndroidStudio and it will work now
