Solution 3:

I had the same issue, it was because I had an existing ".gradle" folder and then I've played with the android studio version (and also with the Java jdk version) , and I guess it messed things up.

Solution: Remove the .gradle directory (mine's location was C:\Users\UserName\.gradle), and restart android studio. It will automatically create a new one.
