It looks like you masked parts of your user's directory name (with "-----"). Are there any special characters in that masked part, maybe even a single quote (')? That would explain the error message.

Hi Andreas,

Ah yes! The user account has a (‘) in the name so I will test with another
user account without special charters and revert.

But this most likely is the issue.

Issue was because my windows username had a (') in it.
