For me, worked this:

try npm i adm-zip

Find your remote Auth on the node modules folder

node_modules/whatsapp-web.js/src/authStrategies/RemoteAuth.js

(put out of try function (constructor) var AdmZip = require('adm-zip'); //

switch your unComprassSession default function for this one.

async unCompressSession(compressedSessionPath) {
    await new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        const zip = new AdmZip(compressedSessionPath);
        zip.extractAllToAsync(this.userDataDir, true, false, (err) => {
            if (err) {
                reject(err);
            } else {
                resolve();
            }
        });
    });
    await fs.promises.unlink(compressedSessionPath);
}

Delete your old WhatsApp session. Create again and awaIt remote_session_saved save your session again. Try to connect one more time.
