'permission denied when using npm install

I have this pipeline

pipeline {
   agent none
   stages {
      stage("ScrapData") {
         agent {
            label 'master'
         }
         steps {
            bat '''
               cd folder
               call npm i puppeteer
               
               cd ..
               call node myfile.js 
            '''
         }
      }

But it is throwing the following exception:

Error: Cannot find module 'puppeteer

How do I solve this issue? I'm not sure about how to solve it. I am not sure about how to solve it. It was working fine before but now it has stopped working.

To fix this I had to reboot windows, manually delete the puppeteer folder from node_modules, then install it again. Seems ok since

NB I couldn't delete it without a reboot, it wouldn't let me change permissions on the folder
