Unhandled Exception when initializing firebase on windows

Question

Hi guys first time here on stack overflow.

I am currently building an app using flutter with firebase as the backend.

My target platforms are Windows and android

The android app builds fine

The windows app throws :

ERROR:flutter/runtime/dart_vm_initializer.cc(41)] Unhandled Exception: PlatformException(channel-error, Unable to establish connection on channel., null, null)

this only happens when I use :

 WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
  await Firebase.initializeApp();

I have also tried :

    WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
  await Firebase.initializeApp(
      options: const FirebaseOptions(
    apiKey: "myapi",
    appId: "appid",
    messagingSenderId: "senderid",
    projectId: "projectid",
    storageBucket: "buckedid",
    databaseURL: 'databaseurl',
  ));

As stated this works fine on android but not windows

I have the latest dependencies for Firebase

I have tried flutter pub outdated and it returns no Firebase dependencies

I have tried flutter pub upgrade

I have tried flutter clear

Hey if you are using the the latest versions of firebase you'd want to follow through the newest way of initializing firebase with firebase CLI. See this https://firebase.flutter.dev/docs/cli starting off by activating firebase cli

have something like this
// Import the generated file
import 'firebase_options.dart'; //this provides the current platform options via the currentPlatform getter from the DefaultFirebaseOptions class
...

await Firebase.initializeApp(
options: const FirebaseOptions(
  apiKey: "API KEY",//<<==
  appId: "ID",//<<==
  messagingSenderId: "IF ANY",//<<==
  projectId: "Project ID",//<<==
),
...
