#1018
The error was caused by a security update in Node.js. https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/april-2024-security-releases-2#command-injection-via-args-parameter-of-child_processspawn-without-shell-option-enabled-on-windows-cve-2024-27980---high
From that blog:
It is important to note that there has been a breaking change for Windows users who utilize child_process.spawn and child_process.spawnSync. Node.js will now error with EINVAL if a .bat or .cmd file is passed to child_process.spawn and child_process.spawnSync without the shell option set. If the input to spawn/spawnSync is sanitized, users can now pass { shell: true } as an option to prevent the occurrence of EINVALs errors.
