You are a life saver!!! That was so incredibly simple... Android Studio NEEDS to fix this themselves.  But I appreciate the work-around!

Wow, thank you, this may be the first time I had to do something technical and did not get frustrated by my incompetence at following directions on a screen. Bless you!

Good stuff! In case you are facing a message saying "the application is damaged and need to be moved to trash", just go to "settings"- "security and privacy" - in general tab select "Anywhere" in the second section. This is just for the first time opening the app, after successfully opening it, change those settings back. Hope this can help someone :)
