After recently upgrading my android studio, I am not able to build my project anymore.

Every time I execute a build, I am struck with the following error:

    error: resource drawable/splash_screen (aka com.whereisthemonkey.nowalism:drawable/splash_screen) not found.
    Message{kind=ERROR, text=error: resource drawable/splash_screen (aka com.whereisthemonkey.nowalism:drawable/splash_screen) not found., sources=[C:\Users\Lucas\.gradle\caches\transforms-1\files-1.1\appcompat-v7-27.1.1.aar\cf575568f869a44c685b16e47de83a28\res\values\values.xml:1632:5-84], original message=, tool name=Optional.of(AAPT)}

This error persists, even though the file splash_screen.xml exists under the drawable folder.

Rebuilding, cleaning the project and invalidating caches did not work!

Adding the line android.enableAapt2=false does not resolve the real issue and I would therefore rather find the root of the problem.

The following shows my gradle.build file:
