If you won’t to create menu then create menu folder in res and then create create_user xml under menu folder. res->meun->create_user .xml — Komal12, Feb 28 '17 at 09:07
if there are issues like this always try cleaning and building the project and sync project with gradle files if they cant solve that error than you should ask it. — Hamza, Mar 04 '17 at 11:41

I know this post is some years old, but I was having the same problem and was unable to find the solution, so adding the steps that helped me resolve the issue to the thread just in case anyone else stumbles across this in future.

Solution: All you need to do is

click the option "Invalidate Cache/Restart..."
On the options menu that pops up, click "Invalidate and Restart"

And on restart of Android Studio, R.menu will become traceable.

Android Studio 3.6.3

If you won’t to create menu then create menu folder in res and then create create_user xml under menu folder.

res->menu->create_user.xml

create_user.xml like this

    <menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >

        <item
            android:showAsAction="never"
            android:title="@string/action_settings"/>

    </menu>
