I cannot reproduce this on Linux. Maybe this issue is exclusive to Windows.

I tried to reproduce it, but I couldn't, let's try to find some specific configurations.

• Which Windows version? (Not only if win11 or 10, the exact version, like 23H2)
• Do you have Windows Dev Drives? The error happens on those or the regular Drives?
• Do you have the Developer mode enabled? If you don't, does the issue happen if enabled?

@codingstark-dev @morhaham2 please, provide this information so I can try to check this issue, thanks!

One of my colleagues encountered this issue several times recently on Mac, but I can't reproduce it at all...

Here's the log:

GET https://[our_private_npm]/@yarnpkg/parsers/-/parsers-3.0.0-rc.48.1.tgz error (ERR_PNPM_TARBALL_EXTRACT). Will retry in 1 minute. 1 retries left.
 ERR_PNPM_TARBALL_EXTRACT  Failed to unpack the tarball from "https://[our_private_npm]/@yarnpkg/parsers/-/parsers-3.0.0-rc.48.1.tgz": Error: Invalid checksum for TAR header at offset 208384. Expected 0, got 5578

He resolves the issue by removing the lock file and executing pnpm i. It always works instantly.

I'll update here if I have more stable reproducing steps.
