EmptyThrowable: The APK file *.apk does not exist on disk

Question

This is an Android application using gradle. After clicking Run, I found APP_V1.3.4_2016-02-22_11:30:29_google_pl

Answer 1

In my case the problem was that the name of the apk to be installed was cached, so everytime I tried running the app, an apk with today's date was generated but when installing, Android Studio looked for an apk file with an old name. The solution was to click Sync Gradle and then Build > Rebuild Project. You may also want to delete folders app/apks and app//build/outputs/apk previously.
