Caused by: com.google.crypto.tink.shaded.protobuf.InvalidProtocolBufferException: Protocol message c-CodePudding

When launching an activity my app crashes at getEncryptedSharedPrefs:

    if(getEncryptedSharedPrefs().getString("pinSettingsLogin", "")!!.isEmpty()){
        getEncryptedSharedPrefs().edit()
            .putString("pinSettingsLogin" , "0000")
            .apply()
    }

With this error:

Caused by: com.google.crypto.tink.shaded.protobuf.InvalidProtocolBufferException: Protocol message contained an invalid tag (zero).

Weird thing is, this if statement works on Android 10 and 11 but not on Android 12. This if statement is here because in the 'if' below I check if the pinSettingsLogin = 0000 so that It goes to a new activity by it self.

    if(getEncryptedSharedPrefs().getString("pinSettingsLogin", "").equals("0000")){
        val i = Intent(this, SettingsActivity::class.java)
        startActivity(i)
        overridePendingTransition(R.anim.slide_in_right, R.anim.slide_out_left)
    }

Have you tried clearing the app's cache?

This might fix the problem!
