After updating my Android Studio to the latest version, I can no longer find the option to build signed apk.



Image to show options available currently



I have tried installing beta and canary builds of Android Studio but they do not seem to carry the option either. Can someone help me figure out how to generate signed apks?

Quick fix is go to File->project Structure->build variants,in build types choose the build you want Debug or Release,scroll down and add a key to Manifest Placeholders apply the changes and click OK,i hope you'll find Generate signed bundle/APK options under build,i don't know if it's the right way to do,it's a rough guess.

I solved this issue by deleting and re-downloading Android SDK Build-Tools. Posting this here in case anyone else is facing this issue.

    Try Invalidate restart
    Goto File > Invalidate Caches/Restart
    If you still face the problem then you have to reinstall the android studio not the build.
    Delete the android studio folder from users or where you have given the path while installing.then open the android studio and it will automatically start installing
