Migrating cypress test from old version to latest version throws error - node.js

Question

I am trying to migrate my test from Cypress 8.7.0 version to Cypress 10.10.0 version. Installed the latest version and did the below settings, but getting below error.
Using below versions:
Cypress 10.10.0,
"#badeball/cypress-cucumber-preprocessor": "^11.4.0",
node v18.4.0,
#bahmutov/cypress-esbuild-preprocessor": "^2.1.5"
Expected to find a global registry (this usually means you are trying to define steps or hooks in support/e2e.js, which is not supported) (this might be a bug, please report at https://github.com/badeball/cypress-cucumber-preprocessor)
Because this error occurred during a before each hook we are skipping all of the remaining tests.
I have added the error handling in e2e.js file and support/index.js file but still could not resolve this issue. I have .env file which has the environment variable in my root location. Could someone please advise on this issue ?

In cypress.config.js add the following:
const {dotenvPlugin} = require('cypress-dotenv');
module.exports = (on, config) => {
config = dotenvPlugin(config)
return config
}
This will resolve the issue.
