Answer 1

Delete all from the path: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Xamarin Folders and Zip files. And then rebuild your project.

Answer 2

Launch Android SDK Manager from Visual Studio

To launch the Android SDK on Windows, navigate to the Tools > Android menu and select Open Android SDK Manager.

The SDK Manager window will open.

You can use this Android SDK manager to select tools, documentation, and the SDK that you wish to download or update.

Ref: https://developer.xamarin.com/recipes/cross-platform/ide/launch_sdk_manager/

After ensuring everything is update in Android SDK:

1) Delete the "21.0.3" folder within in your AppData dir (reference your error)

2) Rebuild your application.

Answer 3

Download android_m2repository_r25.zip related to API Level 21.0.3 and putit on this path C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Xamarin Folders and Zip and extract it.

i hope it will work.
