It's no use to reinstall by deleting node_modules and G:.pnpm-store

? is not a valid character for a file name in Windows, that is why it fails. Seems like npm is escaping the ? symbol when unpacking a package on Windows. We should probably do the same, though I am not sure what sanitizer they use.

[vasco3]

having this issue in v7.1.3

[zkochan]

In that case create an issue with steps to reproduce.

[vasco3]

I fixed it by deleting the store folder
rm -rf /Users/jc/Library/pnpm/store/v3/files/78

[rdsedmundo]

Also having this issue after upgrading to v7. I have no idea how to reproduce it though... it works again by nuking the whole store and re-downloading everything.

This is in MacOS by the way.

I have the same issue in v7.3.0

[bahtou]

v7.3.0
what worked for me was removing two folders:

1. @vasco3 recommendation
2. node_modules

[rdsedmundo]

Just faced this again:

It's unfortunate that pnpm has gotten more unstable on the last two major versions or so with those random errors, as this was one of the biggest selling points compared to npm and yarn.

These issues are unrelated to the original issue, which was fixed. You should create a new issue.
