Use Ruby 2.7 - Jekyll does not support the new Ruby 3 yet.

Please in future have a Google search to see if your issue has encountered before and show some research. Like what you tried before from existing answers and how those solutions didn’t work, as it tells us useful info

Searched this “windows jekyll error webrick” on DuckDuckGo and two results came up around Jekyll on GitHub with your exact error though not Windows related. So you question looks like a duplicate.

And

Add to Gemfile:

gem "webrick"

Then

bundle install

Same as just doing:

bundle add webrick

Ideally you only have to install webrick once globally. I don’t know why that didn’t work. Or why the error is happening. I use Jekyll 4.2 without this error or workaround.

Update: in the second link above there is a merged PR from December linked. That fixes this issue by adding Webrick as a dependency. So as an alternative fix for you, try upgrading to Jekyll newest within 4.2.

gem 'jekyll', '~> 4.2'

In Gemfile

And then one of

bundle install

bundle update

If the merged code is not released as a Jekyll version yet, you have a workaround until the next 4.2.X or 4.3 is released.
