1.Deleted .gradle cache
2.Run gradlew clean
3.Reinstalled NodeJs, JDK, Android Studio, React CLI
4.Restarted system
5.Run terminal as administrator.
6.Run Admin profile.
I run npx react-native doctor my results look like

MANDATORY Reproducer
I am unable to provide a minimal reproducer because this issue appears to be environment-specific (Gradle cache / Windows file locking issue). However, the same error occurs even in a newly created React Native project: npx @react-native-community/cli@latest init AwesomeProject cd AwesomeProject npm run android
