This is a typical error caused by Antivirus. There is a workaround for cases like mine, where I can’t disable A/V (Company Policy).
You have to change the polyfills.js inside Npm package:
[NODE_HOME]/node_modules/npm/node_modules/graceful_fs/polyfills.js
Look for this statement:
if (process.platform === "win32") {
Inside of this statement, there is a timeout making a retry in case of error. The problem is that in some cases, after the timeout, the file is still locked by the A/V. The solution is rip out the timeout and let this statement in loop. The change with the previous code commented:
if (platform === "win32") {
fs.rename = (function (fs$rename) { return function (from, to, cb) {
var start = Date.now()
var backoff = 0;
fs$rename(from, to, function CB (er) {
if (er
&& (er.code === "EACCES" || er.code === "EPERM")
/*&& Date.now() - start < 60000*/) {
console.log("Retrying rename file: " + from + " <> " + to)
fs$rename(from, to, CB);
/*setTimeout(function() {
fs.stat(to, function (stater, st) {
if (stater && stater.code === "ENOENT")
fs$rename(from, to, CB);
else
cb(er)
})
}, backoff)*/
if (backoff < 100)
backoff += 10;
return;
}
if (cb) cb(er)
})
}})(fs.rename)
}
I am fighting this for more than a year, so clearly this is independent of npm and or node version. Just now, I got:
λ npm install

I am pretty sure that there is more than one source of this same manifestation, that include the «interference» from running instance of vscode as well as various virus and malware checkers (I have both of them running — and at this time, vscode was not).
The problem is obviously npm’s failure to execute:
scandir 'H:workaurelia-toolsacb-samplesskeleton-typescript-clinode_modulesfseventsnode_modulesgetpassnode_modules'
because «some other running process* has a lock on that folder. This problem is further compounded by the fact that this folder is temporary, making it impossible to look for the lock owner after the fact. Probably the best approach would be that npm «learns» some of the tricks explained in https://superuser.com/questions/117902/find-out-which-process-is-locking-a-file-or-folder-in-windows article and dump that data into its log.
Recently, when attempting to use the gulp command in the Terminal app, I saw an error message saying Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, uv_cwd. In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to solve this problem.
What causes this error
In my case, the below error appeared when attempting to run the gulp command inside my app project directory in the Terminal app.
$ gulp build
internal/bootstrap/switches/does_own_process_state.js:129
cachedCwd = rawMethods.cwd();
^
Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, uv_cwd

errno: -1,
code: 'EPERM',

}
This seemed strange to me because I had just used the gulp tool and everything was fine. Then I tried to use the bundle update command, thinking that this can be a hint to localize the problem.
$ bundle update shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: Operation not permitted Traceback (most recent call last): 9: from /usr/local/bin/bundle:23:in <main> 8: from /Library/Ruby/Site/2.6.0/rubygems.rb:294:in `activate_bin_path' 7: from /Library/Ruby/Site/2.6.0/rubygems.rb:264:in `find_spec_for_exe' 6: from /Library/Ruby/Site/2.6.0/rubygems/dependency.rb:284:in `matching_specs' 5: from /Library/Ruby/Site/2.6.0/rubygems/bundler_version_finder.rb:45:in `filter!' 4: from /Library/Ruby/Site/2.6.0/rubygems/bundler_version_finder.rb:7:in `bundler_version' 3: from /Library/Ruby/Site/2.6.0/rubygems/bundler_version_finder.rb:22:in `bundler_version_with_reason' 2: from /Library/Ruby/Site/2.6.0/rubygems/bundler_version_finder.rb:73:in `lockfile_version' 1: from /Library/Ruby/Site/2.6.0/rubygems/bundler_version_finder.rb:85:in `lockfile_contents' /Library/Ruby/Site/2.6.0/rubygems/bundler_version_finder.rb:85:in pwd': Operation not permitted - getcwd (Errno::EPERM)
The error appeared again, but now the error message is self explanatory. It saying that the shell-init cannot access parent directories, and this is because error retrieving current directory.
In my case, this makes sense because I used the Finder to delete my app project catalog and restore it from the backup after trying new things and changed my mind to keep them. Facepalm >_<
Now we know what caused this error.
How to solve it
Once we know what is causing the gulp run to fail, we can use it to solve the problem. It is a really easy process. To solve this problem, we just need to re-enter into our app project directory. Now, step by step guide.
In the Terminal app, type the following command and press the Enter key to go up one level in the directory.
Now, type the following command and press the Enter key to navigate to your working directory (in this example the my_app_dir catalog is used).
Important! In my case the working directory is the catalog of my app project called
my_app_dirwhere the problem has occurred. Change the command above to suit your case.
Conclusion
That’s it, you’re done. Now the gulp should run without the Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, uv_cwd error. So simple isn’t it?
If you are having trouble fixing this problem with the instructions above, but are being able to solve this problem with any another method please describe it in the comment section below. Thanks!
I hope this article has helped you learn how to fix the Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, uv_cwd error. If this article has helped you then please leave a comment

Пhи выполнении галп выдает ошибку. Запуск от администратора не помогает, что очень мистическое, так это что что при удалении файла стилей куда всё компилируется галп работает, т. е. без файла стилей запускаю, он создается, галп выключаю, снова включаю, и ошибка, если .css снова удалить, галп заработает. Многие сервисы не дали ответа, решил обратиться туда где мне точно помогут.
