Android Studio is complaining with Cannot access androidx.activity.ComponentActivity in redline, but it's compiling and running fine. I came across many SO posts like this and all suggests clearing cache, removing .idea and .gradle files, clean project. I've tried everything and I still keep getting this. Am I missing something?

                    Which parent `Activity` class you're inheriting from? also share your version if it's `androidx.appcompat`. – Jeel Vankhede Dec 13 '19 at 14:55

        for me downgrading appcompat version to 1.4.2 fixed the problem
you should add this to your build.gradle
implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.4.2'

        check the package of AppCompatActivity.
In my situation, the Activity extends RxAppCompatActivity from the rxlifecycle library.
But the parent class of RxAppCompatActivity in rxlifecycle2 is android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity.
I change to the 'rxlifecycle3' and the problem is soloved.
