Hi @jiideeh . Thank you for opening an issue. This is usually permissions related. Have you tried running with elevated permissions?

having the issue since yesterday. cypress 10 any clues?

You might want to double check your cypress config files. Two times I saw this same error message were because of the following:

1. The baseUrl property was accidentally typed as baseURL and that seemed to cause Cypress to crash with this message. 2. Check that configurations and/or imports aren't referencing other file paths incorrectly. I saw the same error crash happen when a particular initialization was trying to pull in a config file that was using the wrong path.

@lauratischukaccesso I'm not able to reproduce this first instance you mention of the baseURL being wrong and causing Cypress to crash. Can you provide a repo?
