Have you tried to test it in a system terminal outside of VS Code? – Jill Cheng May 12 '21 at 06:59

I'm getting the same error. I've run the same code in vs code on ubuntu during development and it works fine. But when I compiled the program on windows and run it on windows 8.1 I'm now getting this kind of error. – Ice Bear May 20 '21 at 06:32

@IceBear i found out though it throws the error but it doesn't really affect the functioning of the program so I am ignoring the error – Ishan Bhardwaj May 20 '21 at 11:07

@ It needs Windows10. You can refer to the [official docs](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/identity-protection/hello-for-business/webauthnapis) – Steven-MSFT Jun 15 '21 at 01:50
