I just installed the JDK, and this is what happens when I try to run on the Android side.

Can someone explain to me what this is and how to fix it?

Everything is the latest versions.

For me, it turned out to be a java version compatibility issue with Gradle. I down graded from Java SE 16 to Java SE 11 and that fixed the issue.

Thanks! Any ideas what might have caused this?
Can you actually explain how you downgraded Java on Android Studio?

It helped me to install Java 11 series (there is a place to download it on the Internet) and specify the path to it. The previous version 18 does not have to be deleted, just change the path to 11 version in the ~./shzrc file

I had the same error, I fixed the error, by upgrading my gradle to gradle:7.0.0 just going to (android/gradle.build) and under dependencies updating the first classpath :

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.0.0'

and then going to (android/gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties) and updating gradle wrapper to /gradle-7.0.2-all.zip in distributionUrl

distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-7.0.2-all.zip
