I'm having this error during running the following command on Windows 10.

npm run dev 

I'm running lite-server on windows 10, I have tried to solve it using the following commands

npm install -g npm-windows-upgrade
npm install -g concurrently

although I have tried to remove package.json and node modules, reinstalling nodejs. but it seems it is not working.
