How do I fix this error: Task 'wrapper' not found in project ':app'

All my projects report this error? Is there a setting or option I need to change to resolve this error?

app: failed At 9/30/2021 2:47 PM with 1 error
   Task 'wrapper' not found in project ':app'.

Task 'wrapper' not found in project ':app'

* Try:
Run gradle tasks to get a list of available tasks.
Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack

Make sure you are opening the correct folder for your project. you might have selected the root folder but your actual gradle project is in a sub folder. Select the folder that has the gradlew and gradlew.bat in it.

For Kotlin: Here's the correct way to define the wrapper task in your build.gradle.kts file:

tasks.register<Wrapper>("wrapper") {
   gradleVersion = "5.6.4"
}

In this Kotlin DSL code, use the register function to create a new task of type Wrapper and configure its properties within the lambda block.

Note: Make sure to replace '5.6.4' with the desired version of Gradle that you want to use for your project.

If the "unlink" option does not exist in your Gradle settings, you can manually unlink the "app" project by removing its entry from the root/.idea/gradle.xml configuration file.

Delete the .idea entry for the undesired Gradle project

maybe your project's structure is :

yourProjectDir:  
 --> app:  
    --> build.gradle  
 --> otherModule1:  
 --> otherModule2:  
 --> build.gradle

The correct way to open the project is :
Click build.gradle in the root directory 'yourProjectDir', not build.gradle in the 'app' dir.

This is because your build.gradle file doesn't have a wrapper task. Add this code to build.gradle:

task wrapper(type: Wrapper){
   gradleVersion = '7.2'
}

You can replace 7.2 with the gradle version you want, then run gradle wrapper task.
