Does console.error stops the code execution when fired?

Question

I am writing a program which loads a file and run some functions on it. Multiple files can be loaded.

If there's an error loading the file, like a misspelling of the name, I log a console.error. But I don't want to stop the execution.

Does console.error stops the execution? Does throw new error can be an alternative? Or should I use console.warn?
