android - Cause: duplicate entry: AndroidManifest.xml- What seems to be the issue?

Question

I also have the same issue with the AndroidManifest file.

The "Merged Manifest" tab shows this error

Merging Errors: Warning provider#com.telhum.chat.utils.MyFileProvider@android:authorities was tagged at AndroidManifest.xml:75 to replace other declarations but no other declaration present DreamsChat.app main manifest (this file), line 74

Here is my AndroidManifest.xml
