For Mac users. In my case just worked after doing it with privileges:
sudo -s
dart pub cache repair
And them again:
sudo chown -R $(whoami) /Users/miguelgamboa/.pub-cache

First Make sure you have a working internet connection and if this issue still exists, then this error occurs probably because the dart SDK may have not been properly downloaded.
The simplest solution is to delete the cache
folder located in
flutter/bin
(location where flutter is installed) and then Run flutter doctor
(This will redownload the dark SDK)

I had removed access to the certificates while setting up a proxy with Postman:
run sudo dpkg-reconfigure ca-certificates
and enter space to select again (star)

For my case, i was using ubuntu, and after reading the above comments, i have come to a resolution that the above error comes as a result of permissions being blocked, accessing cmd with admin access levels solves the problem, e.g on linux run sudo flutter doctor
and the problem will be solved.
This error occured to me when i tried upgrading my flutter so it needed admin rights to be upgraded nothing much

Mac auto iCloud upload might be causing the error
If you are using Mac and if your Desktop files are being uploaded to iCloud automatically, sometimes iCloud uploads the "bin" file or the "cache" file inside the flutter file. I've just downloaded the file onto desktop (right click the file -> "Download Now") and it downloaded the file, it ran as usual. (Automatic upload can be turned off from system preferences if youn are getting this error frequently like I was).

Tried all of the above without success. The search order in the PATH system variable turned out to be the problem:
it was:
G:\My Drive\Compilers\flutter\bin;
G:\My Drive\Compilers\flutter\bin\flutter;
G:\My Drive\Compilers\flutter\bin\flutter.bat;
G:\My Drive\Compilers\flutter\bin\dart.exe;
G:\My Drive\Compilers\flutter\bin\dart;
G:\My Drive\Compilers\flutter\bin\dart.bat;
changed it to:
G:\My Drive\Compilers\flutter\bin\flutter
G:\My Drive\Compilers\flutter\bin\flutter.bat
G:\My Drive\Compilers\flutter\bin\dart
G:\My Drive\Compilers\flutter\bin\dart.bat
that fixed it

I had the same issue with my MacBook M1. I tried deleting and running flutter pub cache repair
But It didn't work for me.
Then I ran the command softwareupdate --install-rosetta
and accepted the software licences & agreement (After installing XCode). Now the command flutter
works fine. :)

It might be possible that you don't have enough free disk space. That's what caused my problems to begin with.

I fix that by:
Ctrl+C
to stop infinite error loop.cache
folder located in flutter/bin
directory.flutter pub cache repair
.After that I run flutter doctor
and get predictable results:
e:\tools>flutter doctor

Pub failed to delete entry because it was in use by another process. This may be caused by a virus scanner or having a file in the directory open in another application. Error (1): Unable to 'pub upgrade' flutter tool. Retrying in five seconds... (9 tries left)

If anyone faces this problem on macOS with AdGuard installed. Try this:
Go AdGuard Preferences -> Network -> Automatically filter applications -> Select Mode...
and change mode to Automatic Proxy.

You get the error -- "Pub failed to delete entry because it was in use by another process. This may be caused by a virus scanner or having a file in the directory open in another application. Error (1): Unable to 'pub upgrade' flutter tool. Retrying in five seconds... (1 tries left)" even if you are in one of the flutter directories from Windows explorer. Close the window and try running Flutter doctor. This will resolve.

If you are using Avast
(or possibly some other anti virus too) on Mac and have recently updated the OS to Big Sur then follow the below steps to fix this issue
Scan secure connection
".flutter config --no-analytics
and then run pub upgrade
.This should probably fix the issue.
You can also refer to below threads in Github for more details about the cause

It seems it is not being able to "unzip" the downloaded Dart file because it misses 7-zip uncompressor. I installed it and it worked! It will deal with .7z files. I hope it works for other people too!!

I deactivated my antivirus for some time and executed flutter doctor command once again in cmd and got fruitful results after hours of patience. One more thing to note, you should ensure that path of dart-sdk folder should be added to the path in user variables.

Just Deactivate your antivirus and run it again. It would work fine. I had the same issue before.

I got the same error and was not able to get rid of it. So I deleted the flutter and instead of cloning it I downloaded the zip from the flutter website and extracted it. Now it works just fine.

Check your flutter bin path in environment variable(User Variables). If not go to Under User variables check if there is an entry called Path:in that add this flutter/bin path.
