Git bash Error: Could not fork child process: There are no available terminals (-1)

Question

I have had up to 8 git bash terminals running at the same time before.

Currently I have only 2 up.

I have not seen this error before and I am not understand

Answer 1

This happens when you exit git bash without terminating existing process. Just try and kill those processes that you started from git bash. I was running node process inside git bash, so I killed all node processes Steps to kill

1. Open Task Manager
2. Goto Details Tab
3. Look for node.exe(you look for you processes)
4. Kill it each and every node process
5. Open Git Bash again
