I have tried several different methods of getting CSV to compile. I have followed the complete wipe instructions and I am still encountering the same problem. I have a Dell XPS 17 9710 running Windows 11. The log follows.  
julia\> import Pkg; Pkg.precompile()

ERROR: The following 1 direct dependency failed to precompile:

Many people have the same issue

I heard many stories from

Try `]build CSV` to keep `using CSV` until it works

I don’t know if this is helpful, but I can confirm that CSV .10.2 works with Julia 1.7.2 on Ubuntu 20.04.
