Research direction
The payload names only node_repl.exe and Windows error 32 (file in use by another process); no source files or tests are cited. Start by reproducing the browser startup failure on Windows and finding where the node_repl.exe process is launched and whether it is left running after a reset. Done means browser startup succeeds on Windows without error 32, and this needs maintainer context on the browser subsystem.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
“Browser startup fails: node_repl.exe is in use by another process—Windows error 32. Runtime resets did not resolve it.”
The failure occurs before SharePoint loads, so it doesn’t establish a problem with your site permissions.
