Hi Devontay Cross 👋

I'm unable to replicate this issue on my end but have you tried the suggestion that is being provided in that error message?

Please try npm i again after removing both package-lock.json and node_modules directory.

This usually fixes there kind of errors 🙂

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the suggestion, I had to completely redownload VSCode for everything to work correctly
