I am using Angular CLI version 7.3.9 because I can't upgrade to 8.3.2 (I'm assuming the error I get from trying to upgrade Angular CLI is the same issue). When I try to create a new project I'm getting an NPM exception. I've tried clearing the npm cache and updating all of the globally installed packages. Some packages error out with similar errors, other seem to work fine.
This is only affecting one machine. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling @angular/cli, uninstalling and reinstalling node, and trying both node 10 and 12. None have solved the error.
What are my options as far as troubleshooting NPM install errors? What can I try to fix this issue below? Is there anywhere I should look for better answers?
When I run ng version I get the following output:
Angular CLI: 7.3.9
Node: 10.16.3
OS: win32 x64
Angular:
