Hi, I thought it would be good practice to get an old Angular 4 project from this course up and running. I’m on Node v6.9.5 and Angular CLI 1.1.0. When I run ‘npm install’ I get the following errors in the terminal. Any advice? (I tried both ‘npm install selenium-webdriver’ and ‘npm install -g selenium-webdriver’ but I get the same error. I delete node\_modules folder each time I try npm install on this project. I’ve tried running VS Code as admin but I get the same error. I can find nothing on Google about this error.)
