VSCode Deploy Azure Function node.js Error - Number of entries expected in End Of Central Directory does not correspond to number of entries in Central Directory.

Question

Since this morning, when I try to deploy my NodeJs Azure Functions through VSCode I get the following error:

Starting deployment...
Creating zip package...
Zip package size: 86.9 MB
Fetching changes.
Number of entries expected in End Of Central Directory does not correspond to number of entries in Central Directory.
Deployment failed.

I even created a brand new FunctionApp to test it and still have the same issue. After gettting that error my app doesn't respond even in the root: https://mysite.azurewebsites.net/
