When I changed the variants in my project with android studio 3.5 in 2019, I could not change from Active Build Variants. I solved this by deleting the .idea and Build folders of the project and changing the Varieties from Active Build Variants in a new way.
**2019 :
Project build Gradle: 3.5.3
Android Studio: 3.5**
I can't change the Variants from Active Build Variants in any way in the project by keeping the same Build Gradle the same product Flavors Configuration. This is the only difference between the previous configuration and the current one
**2020 :
Project build Gradle: 3.5.3
Android Studio: 4.0.1**
Has anyone worked with Recent Build Variants? What could be the approximate cause of this kind of problem?

In my case I had to update the buildToolVersion as it was lower than needed with the AGP version in one of my modules. When I updated it, I could change the build variant without any problem.

I fixed this by resyncing the gradle. enter double shift --> then search for sync --> resync gradle with project files.

Maybe your project folder is in a symbol linked location, try to use the real location.

Try to untick File > Settings > Experimental > Gradle > Only sync the active variant
