how to solve this issue

Answer 1

I solved this by re-installing node x64 instead of x84. mistakenly I have not installed the compatible node version

Answer 2

I was using the Windows 11 64-bit operating system. I installed node 32bit and saw the same error you have. Here is what I did to solve the problem.

• First, I remove install node 32bit.
• install Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable chose 2015, 2017, 2019, and 2022 x64
• and then installed node 64bit and everything worked for me.

If you already have node 64 installed, you should install it Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable

Answer 3

Yes the very first method of uninstalling node 32 and installing node 64 works also make sure you are running it via **npm run dev** and not npm start or next start

Answer 4

It worked for me.

• Remove the old node (x32)
• I install Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable chose 2015, 2017, 2019, and 2022 x64 as said in one of the comments above
• I installed the x64 node

Answer 5

I was facing the same error while using the Nextjs.

This is how I handled this error: You need to update your nodejs version, You should use Node v20 and 64-bit.

Step 1: Uninstall the existing nodejs

Step 2: Install the Latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Version from here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-US/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170

Step 3: Install Nodejs v20+ and 64-bit from here https://nodejs.org/en/download

Step 4: Restart the system

Step 5: Run command npm run dev

Output:
