[UPDATE]
Initially, I resolved this issue by uninstalling tsc using npm uninstall tsc (as recommended in the response marked as the answer). However, the problem resurfaced after some time, and eventually, I found success by utilizing Windows Server for Linux (WSL) with VSCode. This solution worked instantly, so that's what I've been using.
My current dilemma involves running the tsc command through an NPM script:
"scripts": {
"build": "tsc"
},
Executing tsc in the Windows command terminal works fine, but when I attempt to do it via the NPM script, it fails. Upon running tsc through the NPM script, I encounter the following error in the command console:
> npm run build

The error message indicates
Error: Cannot find module 'D:\Documents\~College\~Coding\tsc\bin\tsc'~Coding\tsc. But I'm unsure why the script is trying to access this folder or how to rectify it.
This is my tsconfig file:
{
"compilerOptions": {
"target": "ESNEXT",
"module": "ESNext",
"outDir": "./dist",
"rootDir": "./src",
"strict": true,
"esModuleInterop": true,
"skipLibCheck": true,
"forceConsistentCasingInFileNames": true
},
"include": [
"./src/**/*"
],
"exclude": [
"./node_modules",
"./.vscode",
"./templates"
]
}
And here's my package file:
{
"name": "skill-tree",
"version": "1.0.0",
"description": "",
"scripts": {
"test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1",

"devDependencies": {

}
Lastly, here's the log file:
(log content)Efforts I've made to resolve the issue include:
- Global installation of typescript using
npm i typescript -g - Reinstalling typescript locally with
npm i typescript --save-dev - Attempting to use
npx tscinstead oftscin both the Windows console and NPM script (resulting in the same error as mentioned above).
