AES encryption in Node JS and C# gives different results

TLDR;

You're using a different IV and algorithm (AES-128 vs AES-256) so you will get different results...

You will need to use the same IV as well as the same key and algorithm if you want to get identical results. This would be an anti-pattern (i.e. don't do this)! Check John's comment about how you're ignoring the algorithm variable in your code, as at a quick glance this and the different IV are responsible for why you're getting different results.

Longer Answer;

1) You actually want it so that the same message (plain text) encrypted with the same key does not always produce the same encrypted result (cipher text). Otherwise any party that is eavesdropping will always know when a duplicate message has been sent again.

2) The initialization vector (IV) is used to provide randomness so that the same plain text does not always result in the same cipher text when a given key is used.

3) This means that to decrypt a message you need to know not only the key but also the IV.

4) The IV should be random and not deterministically derived from the key, otherwise every use of the same key will have the same IV and thus each time the same plain text is encrypted the same cipher text would result. (Leaving you vulnerable to eavesdroppers observing the results of a given message being received and beginning to determine the meaning of the message).
