I use parcel to deploy my web projects and on one occasion I got this error below while trying to deploy the page. I tried several solutions I saw online but none worked for me, I didn't even understand some.

Error: Unable to deserialize cloned data due to invalid or unsupported version.

What I did to resolve this was to delete the .parcel-cache, dist, and node_modules folders, then reinstall all lost packages with the command "npm install or npm i" and also build again with the command "npm run start" (or however you do it with parcel).

You can likely get away with just deleting the parcel-cache folder and/or the dist folder. Doing both worked for me, next time I'll experiment with just deleting the .parcel-cache folder.

After that you can run your run/test command (i.e. yarn start) to rebuild everything.

Consider deleting the node_modules, dist, parcel-cache then you do yarn install

if your project has a .yarn/releases/ folder, try deleting the .cjs file in that folder and adding it back

For me, I was using the wrong Node version. So if you use nvm for managing Node versions, this should work: nvm use 18.16.0 (or whatever version your project uses).
