Flutter windows: build process failed: \Microsoft.CppCommon.targets(241,5): error MSB8066

Question

I have been using flutter windows successfully to run my app. However, recently I downloaded Android Studio and all of a sudden my flutter windows didn't work. It threw out error as following:

Launching lib\main.dart on Windows in debug mode...
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\MSBuild\Microsoft\VC\v160\Microsoft.CppCommon.targets(241,5): error MSB8066: Custom build for 'C:\Users\Schwar
tzLab\PycharmProjects\bahavior_rig\behavior_gui\build\windows\CMakeFiles\3a7123e8b5d134f8b6f9d9b7be4b7e62\flutter_windows.dll.rule;C:\Users\SchwartzLab\PycharmProjects\baha

g\behavior_gui\build\windows\flutter\flutter_assemble.vcxproj]
Building Windows application...
Exception: Build process failed.

I uninstalled Android Studio and reinstalled Visual Studio 2019 and flutter. However the error persisted.

This is the flutter doctor:

Never met this issue. I'm using the stable channel.

[✓] Flutter (Channel stable, 2.0.5, on Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19043.1052], locale en-US)
[✓] Android toolchain - develop for Android devices (Android SDK version 30.0.3)
[✓] Chrome - develop for the web
[✓] Visual Studio - develop for Windows (Visual Studio Community 2019 16.9.4)
[✓] Android Studio (version 4.1.0)
[✓] VS Code, 64-bit edition (version 1.57.1)
[✓] Connected device (3 available)

Try to switch Channel dev to Channel stable.
