After following your solution, I was still not happy with the solution. However, when I tried the suggestions provided in the comments, the issue was resolved.
1) Removed the older Node.js version (v18) and installed the latest one (v22).
2) Restart VS code terminal by closing the VS code editor.
3) Deleted the package-lock.json file and the node_modules folder, then ran the "npm install" command again.
Now it's working. Thanks once again!

But this is a temporary solution…

Yeap, it's still an issue on the mongoose repo. If you use a paid atlas tier then you won't face the error
