I am attempting to run a set of files, and this error keeps popping up. I ran a separate set of files, loading a rest API to my localhost and that worked without error, but switching back to the first set of files still ends in the follow error:

const utf8Encoder = new TextEncoder();
                    ^

ReferenceError: TextEncoder is not defined

I have attempting to reinstall node.js, as well as update and manually delete the modules that are calling for this TextEncoder. The differences in required modules includes 'mongodb' and and 'csv-parse', which were on my personal machine, but not my office machine. Before I 'npm install ...' these two modules, the error appeared, so I then install the two modules, yet the error still persists. I also updated nodejs and again the error was the same. Any ideas on how to fix this so I can run my code?
