Setting Client commands in ES Module

I am trying to set commands in an ESModule:

const __dirname = "./";
const foldersPath = path.join(__dirname, "commands");
const commandFolders = fs.readdirSync(foldersPath);

for (const folder of commandFolders) {
  const commandsPath = path.join(foldersPath, folder);
  const commandFiles = fs
    .readdirSync(commandsPath)
    .filter((file) => file.endsWith(".js"));
  await Promise.all(
    commandFiles.map(async (file) => {
      const filePath = path.join(commandsPath, file);
      const { default: command } = await import(filePath);

      // Set a new item in the Collection with the key as the command name and the value as the exported module
      if ("data" in command && "execute" in command) {
        client.commands.set(command.data.name, command);
      } else {
        console.log(
          `[WARNING] The command at ${filePath} is missing a required "data" or "execute" property.`
        );
      }
    })
  );
}

const __dirname = "./";
const foldersPath = path.join(__dirname, "commands");
const commandFolders = fs.readdirSync(foldersPath);

for (const folder of commandFolders) {
  const commandsPath = path.join(foldersPath, folder);
  const commandFiles = fs
    .readdirSync(commandsPath)
    .filter((file) => file.endsWith(".js"));
  await Promise.all(
    commandFiles.map(async (file) => {
      const filePath = path.join(commandsPath, file);
      const { default: command } = await import(filePath);

      // Set a new item in the Collection with the key as the command name and the value as the exported module
      if ("data" in command && "execute" in command) {
        client.commands.set(command.data.name, command);
      } else {
        console.log(
          `[WARNING] The command at ${filePath} is missing a required "data" or "execute" property.`
        );
      }
    })
  );
}

And getting this error:

TypeError [ERR_INVALID_MODULE_SPECIFIER]: Invalid module "commands\utility\convert.js" is not a valid package name imported from S:\NBV2\index.js
...
code: 'ERR_INVALID_MODULE_SPECIFIER'

TypeError [ERR_INVALID_MODULE_SPECIFIER]: Invalid module "commands\utility\convert.js" is not a valid package name imported from S:\NBV2\index.js
...
code: 'ERR_INVALID_MODULE_SPECIFIER'

This is what the ./commands/utility/convert.js looks like:

import { SlashCommandBuilder } from "discord.js";
import { getInjectiveAddress, getEthereumAddress } from "@injectivelabs/sdk-ts";
import { codeblock } from "../../utils/utilities";

const data = new SlashCommandBuilder()
  .setName("convert")
  .setDescription("Convert address to INJ <> EVM")
  ...

async function execute(interaction) {...}

export {data, execute}

import { SlashCommandBuilder } from "discord.js";
import { getInjectiveAddress, getEthereumAddress } from "@injectivelabs/sdk-ts";
import { codeblock } from "../../utils/utilities";

const data = new SlashCommandBuilder()
  .setName("convert")
  .setDescription("Convert address to INJ <> EVM")
  ...

async function execute(interaction) {...}

export {data, execute}

Is there any issue with using const { default: command } = await import(filePath); or is something else the problem? Thank you!

import { codeblock } from "../../utils/utilities"; you are not importing correctly the file.It missing the extention, like .js
