Ah windows, I bet that has something to do with it. Should help me narrow down the problem, thanks.

I don't know if helps, but i'm using Windows 11

[jamesdaniels]

There’s been a flaky test in the windows contribute test suite, which means I haven’t been keeping as good an eye on this as I should. I’ll see if I can repro on my gaming machine. expect I’ll be able to track it down quickly.

I just confirmed it is a problem in Windows.
I execute the same instructions on Ubuntu 18 in Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), and the script finish successfully.

I'm not sure if it's a related issue, but after i successfully installed angular fire and deployed on firebase functions using Ubuntu. I tried deploy using Windows, but i receive an error.

On Ubuntu

On Windows
