Azure Functions func host start Error: "The gRPC binary module was not installed."

yesterday the VS Code informed me to update azure-functions-core-tools and after updating it, this error was displayed to me after I ran "func host start" :

Couldn't require bundle, falling back to Worker.js. Error: The gRPC binary module was not installed.This may be fixed by running "npm rebuild"

any idea on how to fix this?I tried npm rebuild and it does not worked.

This error often indicates that the grpc library was installed for a platform that is different from the one it is running on. The solution is to run npm install with extra arguments that describe the platform the library will run on. These options are described in the node-pre-gyp README.

For example, to install grpc for use on Node 10.0.0 on a 64-bit Linux that is not Alpine Linux, you can use the following command:

npm install --target=10.0.0 --target_arch=x64 --target_platform=linux --target_libc=glibc

Note: the target_libc option should be omitted for platforms other than Linux.

after 2 hours, installing x86 version of azure-functions-core-tools resolved the error. but this may not be the best solution.
