How to solve this issue

Answer 1

I checked system variables found the cause of the problem: missing C:\Windows\System32\ variable.

I added it and that solved my problem

Hope, it help you too.

Answer 2

Did you check the environment variables for your system? You must add below the environment variables.

JAVA, Salesforce CLI, VS Code, System32

Answer 3

If your are connecting to a sandbox, edit your sfdx-project.json file to set sfdcLoginUrl to https://test.salesforce.com before you authorize the org.

Here's the code that I'm using

{
  "packageDirectories": [
    {
      "path": "force-app",
      "default": true
    }
  ],
  "namespace": "",
  "sfdcLoginUrl": "https://test.salesforce.com/",
  "sourceApiVersion": "49.0"
}
