This is not happening on MS hosted agents.\n\nCould you give us some hint what could be the root cause? Why is nodejs 20.1 needed to run `- script: echo $PATH`? Is it used by the system itself? What could cause it sometimes not being present?\n\nI can add more info if needed.\n\nThank for any help!\n\n\n### Versions\n\nCurrent agent version: '4.251.0'\nAgent running as: 'AzDevOps'\nImage: ubuntu-latest\n\n### Environment type (Please select at least one enviroment where you face this issue)\n\n- [ ] Self-Hosted\n- [ ] Microsoft Hosted\n- [x] VMSS Pool\n- [ ] Container\n\n### Azure DevOps Server type\n\ndev.azure.com (formerly visualstudio.com)\n\n### Azure DevOps Server Version (if applicable)\n\n_No response_\n\n### Operation system\n\n_No response_\n\n### Version controll system\n\nGit\n\n### Relevant log output\n\n```shell\n2025-03-11T00:16:33.8605603Z ##[section]Starting: Node.js info\n2025-03-11T00:16:33.8621208Z ==============================================================================\n2025-03-11T00:16:33.8621756Z Task : Command line\n2025-03-11T00:16:33.8622069Z Description : Run a command line script using Bash on Linux and macOS and cmd.exe on Windows\n2025-03-11T00:16:33.8622609Z Version : 2.250.1\n2025-03-11T00:16:33.8622928Z Author : Microsoft Corporation\n2025-03-11T00:16:33.8623299Z Help : https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/devops/pipelines/tasks/utility/command-line\n2025-03-11T00:16:33.8623801Z ==============================================================================\n2025-03-11T00:16:34.0871007Z ##[error]An error occurred trying to start process '/agent/externals/node20_1/bin/node' with working directory '/agent/_work/1/s'.

As it seems like something on OS is stopping the node process from getting started. I dont believe the cause is that the file is missing as mentoined in the initial comment as agent ships with node20_1. \n</comment_new>\n\n<comment_new>\n<comment_id>2808997522</comment_id>\n<author>@tarunramsinghani</author>\nHmmm the disk space seems okay in this case. Would it be possible to collect and share diagnostics logs when this reproes again. To enable and collection diagnostic logs for agent please check this - [Configure verbose logs](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/troubleshooting/review-logs?view=azure-devops&amp;tabs=windows-agent#configure-verbose-logs)\n</comment_new>\n\n<comment_new>\n<com
