See electron/electron#51619, extract-zip > yauzl@2 is broken on Node 24.16. Setting a manual resolution/override for yauzl@3.3.1 via your package manager will fix it.

In the meantime, we're planning on replacing extract-zip with a new internal lib to avoid this issue going forward.

Thank you for the report!
