Hi @kunalmukhi did you find a solution, I am having the same issue, but when I am trying to deploy a package.xml

[indrajitaus]

I am also facing similar issue...

[nramyasri-sf]

@kunalmukhi , is this still an issue? Do you see the same error when you execute the command directly through the CLI?

[shalinimendu]

I am experiencing this issue now.

Hi @ddxxtony , @shalinimendu , @nramyasri-sf , @indrajitaus ,

I have been able to fix this issue after a lots of debugging and grilling.
Error will come with both CLI and retrieve command from right click @shalinimendu , @ddxxtony
The problem that I found out is that one of the plugins installed with Salesforce CLI is creating an issue.
So we just need to run 2 commands and issue will get resolved.

Open cmd (command prompt) and run these 2 commands

1. sfdx plugins:uninstall salesforcedx
2. sfdx update

That's it and problem is solved.
Please let me know if you still face this problem.

UPDATE:
Not ideal, but removing sfdx and reinstalling fixed the issue:
https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.sfdx_setup.meta/sfdx_setup/sfdx_setup_uninstall.htm

[satishsfdc]

just run the command : sfdx update, it resolved my issue.
