[Bug] Firefox fails with STATUS_DLL_NOT_FOUND on some Win 10 setups #2298
Description
HI,
I have been experimenting playwright for our product UI automation.
I have a package.json and login page script. When I run it, it works well and launches Chromium and Firefox for me. I am on Ubuntu.
When I ask my team members to try the code. For 2 users firefox does not launch on their machines. One user is on Ubuntu and one is on Windows. ESame code works for other 2 users without any issue.
Error is -
Failed to launch browser!
