I have been trying to build my project for sometime now and each time i try to build it i get the error and a file comes up that i have no idea about (debug/AndroidManifest.xml) I have invalidated caches and restarted several times to no avail. i have cleaned the project several times and still getting the same. I even went further to toggle my build variants between release and debug. Still no solution

see the screenshot below

aapt error unexcepted element. it means in the wrong level. check or remove it.

Your intent filter is in wrong place. Where it shows that you commented out the activity which was supposed to use the intent. remove the line and build again.
