ERR_REQUIRE_ESM #9

Getting this error when attempting to run "npm start"

const inquirer = require("inquirer");
                 ^
Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: require() of ES Module <my folder>\telegram-channel-downloader-main\node_modules\inquirer\lib\inquirer.js from <my folder>\telegram-channel-downloader-main\modules\auth.js not supported.

Instead change the require of inquirer.js in <my folder>\telegram-channel-downloader-main\modules\auth.js to a dynamic import() which is available in all CommonJS modules.
    at Object.<anonymous> (<my folder>\telegram-channel-downloader-main\modules\auth.js:1:18) {
  code: 'ERR_REQUIRE_ESM'
}

Node.js v20.13.1

I've replaced my actual path with 'my folder' in this description. Not sure if this is because I'm using the wrong version of a dependency? I'm made sure the following are installed via npm - ejs, enquirer, inquirer, mime-db, node-fetch and telegram

Add:

"inquirer": "^8.2.6"

to "dependencies" in the package.json file
