The latest version of ImageMagick on Windows 10 uses magick.exe instead of convert.exe.
This is because convert.exe is an internal Windows program, and conflicts with the previous ImageMagick executable.
A temporary workaround is to copy "magick.exe" to "convert.exe" in the Program Files\ImageMagick-* folder, however this is not a good long-term solution.

Please update the system to dynamically try "magick.exe" first before reverting to "convert.exe" on Windows machines.

During ImageMagick installation I choose the "Install legacy utilities" option to fix this

another thing I had to do to get it to work was upgrade gm dependency cross-spawn to 6.5.0

Any chance this will be added in the future?
