respectful greeting,  
I am evaluating the onpremise version of elasticsearch & Kibana 8.4.3 on windows 10, starting Elasticsearch, it works ok, I can see it [http://localhost:9200/](http://localhost:9200/)...... but when I try to run kibana. I get the following error.... I will appreciate your help please... Thank you very much

### error

C:\programming\kibana-8.4.3\>.\bin\kibana.bat  
Error: Cannot find module '../setup\_node\_env/dist'

It goes without saying that the MODULE to which it refers DOES exist in the indicated route.  
Thanks

Have you extracted correctly? Some files are missing.
