Thanks for the report @sanex3339 - if you'd like to submit a PR to resolve this we'd be very grateful.

In terms of support, ts-loader aims to continue supporting webpack 4 and 5 for now, (just as we've supported multiple versions of webpack in the past). So any patch should support webpack 4 and webpack 5.

You can see a feature testing approach in the codebase that does this here: https://github.com/TypeStrong/ts-loader/blob/master/src/after-compile.ts#L253

Feel free to reach out for help - particularly when it comes to the tests; we're happy to collaborate on PRs ❤️🌻

yarn add ts-loader@8.0.5

• Fixed deprecation warnings on webpack@5. #1195

Worked for me using ^5.52.0
