Failed to open zip file. Gradle's dependency cache may be corrupt (this sometimes occurs after a network connection timeout.)

Question

I am having trouble getting my project build, always when I press the run button after a while I get this error message.

I tried several solutions suggested on other posts, for example clearing the .gradle folder, rebuilding the project, cleaning the project, manually downloading the grade files, ... but none have worked for me.

I am using gradle 4.4

Another point worth mentioning is that when looking deeper in the error messages I see this, but I don't know what it means

Caused by: java.util.zip.ZipException: error in opening zip file

Thank you for your help

I tried many listed options in various posts but at the end reinstalling android studio worked for me. I recommend doing this option when nothing else works. I followed this post to do so.
