Invalid depfile: Flutter

Question

I am following a tutorial from a udemy course and recently I built a new pc so the hard drive that stored my code is secondary right now. When I compile the code, it gives me the following error. To explain it better, I am posting a picture of one warning in my code but I am pretty sure it is an error flutter is making as it usually does with imports. Error in Code I have tried running a test app by making a default app from cmd and that works fine. So obviously, flutter doctor shows no error. the error is repetitive and long so I am pasting some of it below.

The error-

Invalid depfile: D:\WorkSpace\Code\Flutter\Image App\image_app\.dart_tool\flutter_build\8f0d0eee9ef614ed024ca7691a333af8\kernel_snapshot.d

Answer 1

I got the same error and I am following a udemy course as well.
I tried flutter pub get and it worked.

Answer 2

Sometimes it happens to me too. I either deleted the converted code or converted it command For example here I entered:

import 'dart:html';

, And my error was fixed after deleting it or turning it into a comment

// import 'dart:html';

Answer 3

i also faced the same problem and i sort out by running "flutter clean" command. https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/21053

Answer 4

you need clean the project run "flutter Clean" in the project and later run the project normal

Answer 5

Okay so I found out since I changed the PC, I needed to change permissions of a file. Follow here https://github.com/simolus3/moor/issues/224

Answer 6

Invalid depfile: D:\...\f5\.dart_tool\flutter_build\8e234dd4da26339b660f6097cc2a271a\kernel_snapshot.d

Delete kernel_snapshot.d and kernel_snapshot.stamp files at this location:

your flutter project\.dart_tool\flutter_build\8e234dd4da26339b660f6097cc2a271a

Answer 7

well, you can do two steps to fix this issue

1. flutter clean
2. flutter pub get

after running these commands it should fix your issue
