If you remove line 16...

runProguard true

...does it run then?

It's been a few months since doing any Android development and I got this error after updating Android Studio. It looks like the runProguard() function was renamed to minifyEnabled() at some point.

On line 16 replace "runProguard true" with "minifyEnabled true"

I've noticed that sometimes if I'm following along and type something independently from the autofill, I won't have the necessary package dependencies added, since we rely on that in this course a lot. Try deleting the line, then finishing it partially, hovering over the unfinished text and hitting ctrl+enter to have the autofill add any packages the method needs automatically. Let me know if that works for you, I see almost no other difference in your code, except mine is set to false, most likely because I haven't got to that lesson in the course.
