Answer 1

I had this issue when I migrated to Androidx using the Android Studio feature but at the first time the migration was not successful so each time I tried to compile I ran into this issue.

To resolve this issue, I did the following:

[1] Comment all androidx dependencies in the app bundle.gradle file
[2] Try the Migrate to Androidx. You can see this link in Refactor -> Migrate to Androidx. If the migration was successful, then
[3] Uncomment all androidx dependencies in the app bundle.gradle file

You may clean and build your project again, hopefully this error should disappear.
