The error says:

node:internal/validators:162
    throw new ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE(name, 'string', value);
          ^
TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]: The "path" argument must be of type string. Received undefined

Issue has been resolved, after upgrading the NodeJS to the latest version, as of today is v22.15.1.

Make sure you use Node.js >= 18.20.

After updating your Node.js, you can run node --version in command prompt or Powershell to verify the version.
