It used to work for me for some time. Had this exact error before. Solved it by reinstalling playwright-firefox setting ``` process.env.PLAYWRIGHT_BROWSERS_PATH = “0”;

it worked for sometime. But its happening again.

@aslushnikov thanks for the support!

unfortunately i cant share the private code, but it is nothing special really.

import {firefox} from "playwright-firefox";

async function runBrowser(){
const browser = await firefox.launch(); 

await browser.newContext({
        ignoreHTTPSErrors: true,
        viewport: null,
    });
    }
    
 await Promise.all[runBrowser(),runBrowser()];

please let me know if i could help more.

thanks!
