hi @Pecral is it possible for you to use pnpm instead, as it is fast and convenient.

Hi @chakAs3, sadly I also have the issue in pnpm, as described above.

@Pecral can please create a repro repo for me so i can check it out

It seems to be related to windows, as I don't have this issue on my macos machine. Will investigate further - a colleague of mine had the same issue on his windows machine
