Could you come up with a reproduction?

Would you be able to provide a reproduction? 🙏

More info

Why do I need to provide a reproduction?

Reproductions make it possible for us to triage and fix issues quickly with a relatively small team. It helps us discover the source of the problem, and also can reveal assumptions you or we might be making.

What will happen?

If you've provided a reproduction, we'll remove the label and try to reproduce the issue. If we can, we'll mark it as a bug and prioritize it based on its severity and how many people we think it might affect.

If needs reproduction labeled issues don't receive any substantial activity (e.g., new comments featuring a reproduction link), we'll close them. That's not because we don't care! At any point, feel free to comment with a reproduction and we'll reopen it.

How can I create a reproduction?

We have a couple of templates for starting with a minimal reproduction:

👉 https://stackblitz.com/github/nuxt/starter/tree/v3-stackblitz
👉 https://codesandbox.io/s/github/nuxt/starter/v3-codesandbox

A public GitHub repository is also perfect. 👌

Please ensure that the reproduction is as minimal as possible. See more details in our guide.

I've tested the sample project what nuxt provides.
here's the link
https://github.com/nuxt/examples/tree/main/examples/features/auto-imports
it doesn't worked on my local env.
the frontend is displaying on browser but it returns the error like this.

I've just checked the auto-imports example project locally and it works fine. Make sure you haven't made any changes which might have an impact on this. A valid reproduction is still needed to be able to help you.

Note the title of your issue mentions the utils/ folder, whether your comment above describes sayHello function from the composables/ folder.

[AtosLab]

It's also same when I call the utils function directly instead of calling via composables in app.vue.

And, I've tried this project on Ubuntu OS and it worked well.
I'm not sure why it doesn't work on only windows.

I encountered a similar issue previously, and it was related to my project directory's permissions. Perhaps you could try moving your project to another folder, ensuring that the directory is writable, and then run your project again.

Make sure that your .nuxt folder is writable, as it is generated when you run dev or nuxi prepare.
