Build Error with new quasar/app-webpack version 3.13.5

[midhunmungath1]

Hi, I am getting a build error when the code upgraded to newer version of quasar/app-webpack (3.13.5). It works fine with 3.13.4 version of webpack. Please let me know what needs to be done.

Error -
Syntax Error: spawn EPERM

 App •  ERROR  •  UI  in ./src/css/app.scss

Syntax Error: HookWebpackError: Module build failed (from ./node_modules/sass-loader/dist/cjs.js):

Hi. Please share a reproduction. A brand-new project works fine, so this is something specific to your project.

Hi, thank you for the response, @yusufkandemir. It looks like the security team was blocking the execution of node_modules\sass-embedded-win32-x64\dart-sass\src\dart.exe, which was causing the error. I was able to get the dart.exe file added to the approved list, and the build is now successful. Appreciate your help.
