Hey @starleaf1, thanks for reaching out and sharing your debug logs. I’m trying to reproduce the issue you mentioned, but I encountered no errors when starting the emulators on an existing project.

Looking through your logs, it seems like the reason why the emulators wasn’t able to start was due to this error:

[debug] [2023-12-08T15:10:32.589Z] TypeError: (0 , strip_ansi_1.default) is not a function

[error]
[error] Error: An unexpected error has occurred.

Could provide detailed steps to reproduce the issue or an MCVE where the issue is reproducible so that we can replicate it on our end?

I’m using the following to try and reproduce the issue:

• firebase-tools: v13.0.1
• Node: v20.10.0

It seems to me that this is likely for our fix in Windows environments #6588 I'm unable to reproduce however, so something definitely seems off

Ok after a rm -rf node_modules and a fresh install I'm able to repro, a fix will be out in the next release. In the meantime 13.0.0 will work (unless you're on Windows).
