Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory

Current behavior

Getting this error

Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, stat 'C:\Users\vjajula\AppData\Roaming\Cypress\cy\production\projects\TestProject-5eca4a01b3bc6b0e9c1896c350de1388\bundles\cypress\e2e\**\Testlocation\file_name.feature

after deleting the App Data. I tried running the files again but the cypress did not create app data which is maintained by cypress.

I have tried clearing cache and different workaround but that did not help.

How to restore the app data in this situation. Even I tried creating different project but the app data is not updating for the other projects as well.

@vj160921 I would have recommended clearing all App Data and cache data like you say you've done.

Could you run Cypress in debug mode mode and print the entire set of logs here?

HI Even my work is stuck here. I tried deleted all the Appdata and cache but after that reinstalling is giving errors.Unfortunately cant share the logs but getting similar issues

I believe this issue may be related to

#19423 - Cypress not picking up most recent spec file changes

I was running into very similar errors, where the test wouldn't update when I made changes, couldn't rename the test file either - would get that same error, re-installing node_modules, clearing npm cache and cloning the repository didn't work. The cause of this bug for me was somewhere in my test I started using URLSearchParams which auto-imported from import { URLSearchParams } from 'node:url'; which caused Cypress to go nuts on me.

# Nearly identical error I was getting
Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, stat '/Users/evilscaught/Library/Application Support/Cypress/cy/production/projects/obsidian-fe-e2e-8e9edc7003d4ce7393a3d0609d0ef9bf/bundles/src/e2e/company/accumulations-tab.cy.ts'

Given that information, have you tried replacing all the contents in your test file with the bare minimum code to see if it Cypress is able to run it?

describe('Basic test, () => {
  it('test case', () => {
     console.log('I hate node imports sometimes');
  });
});

Because if Cypress can, then it's could be something you're using, an unsupported import possibly.
