Javascript error causes Rstudio to fail to install 2023.09.1+494 (Corruption of dock.node)

Recently after a Windows system update Rstudio stopped working so naturally, I tried to update Rstudio.
However, in both versions of 2023.09.1+494 and 2023.09.01 Rstudio the script fails triggering a cybersecurity error with something about sockets or saml.... I think.... ?

Well below are the error logs in case anyone can make sense of them.

Since this is now happening as well as in the latest version again, I thought it was important to make a bug report. Rolling back to the update prior to 2023.09.01 seems to fix the issue as mentioned here: https://forum.posit.co/t/updated-rstudio-to-2023-09-01-now-launch-fails-because-of-a-missing-javascript-module/174886/2?u=rgis
