npm install and npm i -g @angular/cli commands failing with command failed error

Question

I cloned an angular repository, ran npm i and it throws below error:

PS C:\projects\FIFA\skeleton> npm i 
npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: See https://github.com/lydell/source-map- 
resolve#deprecated
npm ERR! code 3221225477
npm ERR! path C:\projects\FIFA\skeleton\node_modules\@angular\cli
npm ERR! command failed
npm ERR! command bash -c node ./bin/postinstall/script.js

I ran this command npm cache clean --force and still npm i throws the same error.

I upgraded nodejs from 16.13.0 to 16.14.0 and still npm i throws the same error.

I uninstalled @angular/cli npm uninstall -g @angular/cli and when reinstalling it npm i -g @angular/cli facing the same error:

npm ERR! code 3221225477
npm ERR! path C:\Users\148965\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\@angular\cli
npm ERR! command failed

Some packages are getting installed, like: npm i -g http-server and npm i -g lite-server

Facing the same issue with npm i -g nodemon

npm i also works fine in other node projects.

Issue exists only in Angular.

I am unable to understand what is causing this issue. Everything was fine till yesterday.

Any help is appretiated. Thanks in advance.
