Answer 1

The issue in the latest android studio update is with the Instant Run feature. There happens to be a serious issue with gradle, so you may either turn off the Anti-Virus or the Instant Run feature till then.

I am using android studio 2.3 and solved this issue by disabling the anti-virus protection.
