Sometimes latest versions of the software can cause issues when installed on older devices or devices running an older version of the operating system. Software makers usually fix these issues but it can take them some time. What you can do in the meantime is to download and install an older version of Gradle 6.3.

What's new in this version:

Improved error messages:
Show location of Java fatal error log:
- When the Java virtual machine executing the Gradle daemon crashes unexpectedly, the Java virtual machine will generate a fatal error log. The crash could be due to a bug in Java, Gradle itself, or in the user code being executed.
- Since it may be hard to find where this error log is written, Gradle now prints the location of the crash log to the console

Support for Java 14:
- Gradle now supports running and building with Java 14.

Fixed:
- Deprecate 'default' and 'archives' configurations for resolving and declaring dependencies
- Show path of hs_err_pid file when daemon disappears
- Update documentation to not point to samples or snippets in -all distribution
- De-serialization of task graph incorrect for anonymous subtypes of enum.
- Gradle crashes if GRADLE_RO_DEP_CACHE is set and it cannot create modules-2 directory within it
- Checkstyle task can no longer be configured to analyse single files
- Precompiled script plugin fails to build on Windows if script is saved with CRLF (accessors not resolved)
- Daemon crashes for `ArtifactTransformInputArtifactIntegrationTest` with VFS retention enabled
- C++ compilation doesn't pick up file changes when VFS retention is enabled

- Instant execution fails on Java Compile Task (no source) when there are only kotlin files in src/main/java
- Handle all macOS file events without dropping VFS
- File change not recognized by VFS on macOS when entire watched directory is removed
- Watch long paths on Windows
- Implement event-driven file watcher for Linux
