5,818 PointsFailure [INSTALL_FAILED_DEXOPT] Getting this error frequently on Android Studio ?
I am unable to install and run my app in android studio. Went through numerous forums which advised cleaning and rebuilding. Tried all these. This happens even when i am running an app on an emulator for the first time(app run first time + emulator run first time). I also getting a message from the emulator to uninstall and reinstall package "Installation failed since the device possibly has stale dexed jars that don't match the current version (dexopt error). In order to proceed, you have to uninstall the existing application.
WARNING: Uninstalling will remove the application data!
Do you want to uninstall the existing application?"
The application dint get installed on the first place. Why is this happening. I tried default android emulator as well as genymotion - still it is not working.
