ProcessException: An Application Control policy has blocked this file.

@ayushrana-1 You probably have an anti-virus or firewall that is prohibiting the tool to access the said file and hence the error, you'll need to check your config/ setup and give required permission for the tool to access the files.
Closing, as this isn't a flutter issue.
