Python Worker - OSError: [WinError 87] The parameter is incorrect

Today I encountered the following error while using a Python worker on Windows:

OSError: [WinError 87] The parameter is incorrect
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

All I found on internet was related to Windows, and I didn't find a solution to be able to use it directly.

Did you had the same error? If yes, how did you resolve it?

My alternate solution

From the Microsoft Store, install Ubuntu and use that terminal to execute my worker.
