I’m able to reproduce this by using the example site of the hugo-coder theme.

I get the error on my Windows 10 laptop, but not on my MacBook. Let me know if you need more info.

Hugo version

Steps to reproduce

git clone https://github.com/luizdepra/hugo-coder.git
cd hugo-coder\exampleSite
hugo --themesDir ../..
