Error: "AndroidFixManifests" parameter is not supported, when run in Release mode

Question

Error: The "AndroidFixManifests" parameter is not supported by the "XamarinDownloadArchives" task loaded from assembly: Xamarin.Build.Download, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null from the path:
C:\Users\GauravPatil.nuget\packages\xamarin.build.download\0.11.3\buildTransitive\Xamarin.Build.Download.dll.
Verify that the parameter exists on the task, the <UsingTask> points to the correct assembly, and it is a settable public instance property in IMS.Mobile.Droid

I am trying to run application in release mode.

Try to Open the.csproj file and delete the parameters for AndroidFixManifests. Then, save the project and build it. — Eshana Milan Weerasinghe, Jun 30 '23 at 08:11
https://github.com/xamarin/XamarinComponents/issues/1063#issuecomment-1334583186 suggests using Solution Explorer / Manage Nuget packages, to install Xamarin.Build.Download. — ToolmakerSteve, Jul 01 '23 at 04:15

As a summary, I will post an answer.

There is a known issue about this problem just as ToolmakerSteve said, you can follow up this issue: here.

You can try the workaround as follows:

Right click your solution -> Manage NuGet Packages for Solution--> On the Browse tab, search for Xamarin.Build.Download nuget
install Xamarin.Build.Download nuget for all of the projects and ensure to install the same version (0.11.4)
Clean and rebuild your Solution.
