Since the folder name public is already contained in the URL of your stylesheet, you must write
app.use("/public", express.static("D:\\Igor\\Desktop\\Angela\\todolist-v1\\public"));
Note also that backslashes must be doubled in Javascript strings.
With your current code, the stylesheet is looked up at D:\Igor\Desktop\Angela\todolist-v1\public\public\css\styles.css, where it does not exist. This leads to an HTML error page ("Cannot GET ..."), hence the browser complaint about the wrong mime type.

. If you run the express app from another directory, it’s safer to use the absolute path of the directory that you want to serve.
Have you installed "path" module??
If not first install it.
Do
const path= require('path')
To use a static directory in your app do,
app.use('/public' , express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'public')))
Now to access assets under public folder in any directory use,
public/css/style.css
