Incorrect FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS

For some reason my update script doesn't work anymore. It basically downloads an .APK file, compares the version with the installed version and when newer -> updates the old app with the new one.

However, since today the FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS doesn't seem to work anymore.

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Failed to find configured root that contains /storage/emulated/0/Hanenberg/latest-version.apk

So my question: what do I need to add to my filepaths.xml to make this work again? I always use the Hanenberg folder inside the root on emulator/real device.

filepaths.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<paths>
    <files-path path="/" name="external_storage_root" />
    <files-path path="/storage/emulated" name="emulated" />
</paths>

AndroidManifest.xml:

<provider
    android:name="android.support.v4.content.FileProvider"
    android:authorities="${applicationId}.myfileprovider"
    android:exported="false"
    android:grantUriPermissions="true">
    <meta-data
        android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS"
        android:resource="@xml/filepaths"/>
</provider>

Try this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<paths>
    <external-path
        name="external_files"
        path="." />
</paths>
