I too faced the same problem while building the project. Below is what has happened :

Cause :I copied my project folder from one location to another in same drive. But my xamarin studio was still considering old project path

Solution : 1.close current project

2.go to your project folder which you want to run. example D:\Projects\my project\hybridappApp

  1. locate you project solution file (Microsoft Visual Studio Solution (.sln))

  2. double click the file and it opens the xamarin studion for you.

  3. clean the solution and build before you run the project.

Hope this helps.

Copy your project to a location with short path.

For example :

Your original file location looks like : c:\users\user\documents\visual studio 2015\Projects\App1\

Copy and paste it into another location like E:\App1.
