• hey ArabDROPS! Wele! is there any more information you can share? maybe explain what you did that broke the normal behavior? it's hard to help you fix this with only the information you provided. thanks! – Thatkookooguy Commented Aug 22, 2021 at 10:10
• Seems odd. I can see your using powershell, does it do the same using standard cmd shell?. If so it's maybe some funky powershell settings rather than node.. – Keith Commented Aug 22, 2021 at 10:37
• Did you save your file? – Nick Parsons Commented Aug 22, 2021 at 10:55

turned out that the problem was i did not save the file, if your having the same issue please try to save before runing.

run the file with .js extensions your run only with filename node app

try to run node app.js
