Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugResources'.
A failure occurred while executing com.android.build.gradle.internal.tasks.Workers$ActionFacade Android resource linking failed C:\Users\kcs\AndroidStudioProjects\OURVEDIC\app\build\intermediates\packaged_manifests\debug\AndroidManifest.xml:11: AAPT: error: resource xml/backup_descriptor (aka com.binni.ourvedic:xml/backup_descriptor) not found.
This is the error I am having
my code :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.binni.ourvedic">
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:roundIcon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:theme="@style/Theme.OURVEDIC"
android:fullBackupContent="@xml/backup_descriptor">
<activity android:name=".SplashScreen">
<intent-filter>

<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity android:name=".MainActivity">
</activity>
<meta-data
android:name="preloaded_fonts"
android:resource="@array/preloaded_fonts" />
</application>
</manifest>Remove the line android:fullBackupContent="@xml/backup_descriptor" in your application tag in manifest file, or add the needed xml file to your project.
<application
android:fullBackupContent="@xml/backup_descriptor">
...
</application>
looks like if you have clone the project that uses shared preferences, this error wont go away by simply deleting
android:fullBackupContent="@xml/backup_descriptor
In order to solve this problem, create a new resource directory of type xml in res folder. Inside this folder create a a file named : "backup_descriptor" and copy this tag into it :
<full-backup-content>
</full-backup-content>
in Android Studio , try This
File > Invalidate Caches/Restart
