With "compatibility" files problems you can try to delete / or rename for security any appcompat "project" in eclipse and create a new project using a compatibility mode (different target and "required" SDK values, equals to your version needs), it will generate a new appcompat project, remember to link your existing project to this appcompat project and check your lib for no duplicate compat. jar.

Before creating the project, run eclipse as Administrator so that it creates the jar in the location that it is referencing to.

Right click the eclipse icon and select the option"Run as Administrator"

Delete jar library from every directory you add. Then you need to add appcompat as a dependency. If you use Android Studio, you need to do as following:

add this

compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:18.0.+'

into your gradle dependencies and after that, Build -> Rebuild Project.
