While working on my application, I started encountering this error message out of nowhere. Everything was functioning correctly before, and I'm clueless as to what could have caused these errors to pop up. I attempted to address the issue by installing @types/node and adding
"angularCompilerOptions": {
"types" : ["node"]
}
to my tsconfig.json, but unfortunately, that didn't resolve the problem.
ERROR in node_modules/@angular/compiler-cli/src/ngtsc/file_system/src/types.d.ts:37:43 - error

I'm completely stuck on how to solve this. Any suggestions for resolving this issue?
