Hey y'all, sorry, it took some digging to find something good for you to try.

I stumbled upon this GitHub issue for some other software: https://github.com/PowerShell/PSReadLine/issues/1464

It makes it sound like a potential cause of the The system cannot open the device or file specified exception is the permissions of your /tmp and /private/tmp folders. Feel free to read through the issue yourself, but ultimately it'd be great if y'all could try running chmod 777 /private/tmp and chmod +t /private/tmp. There's a chance you'll need to run as sudo but I would try without first.

If that doesn't work, it could be that tmp is full in which you'll want to consider doing as this comment recommends: https://github.com/PowerShell/PSReadLine/issues/1464#issuecomment-726813686
