I was getting this error on a page that was using FormData and File, everything worked locally on next dev and next build && next start, but was failing when deploying to Vercel.

Upgrading to Node 20 fixed it

You sir are a god send

I got the same error when deploying. It works great on my machine because I am running node 20x. Vercel deployment settings out of the box uses node 18x. So i went to vercel app settings and changed it to 20x, not it works like a charm.

[faustinozanetto]

I've encountered the same issue and I can confirm upgrading to Node 20 fixes it.

I upped to v20 but still got the issue: File is not defined

[bascor1207]

The same issue occurred, and the same resolution applied. It was failing in my GitHub Actions, but upgrading to Node 20.x in main.yml solved the issue.

Upgrading to v20 solved this, even locally.
