ERROR node_modules/@types/node/globals.d.ts(196,5) errorTS2300: Duplicate identifier 'resolve'...

Getting following error after updating app from Angular 5 to 7, using ng update --all --force to update all the dependencies.

ERROR in node_modules/@types/node/globals.d.ts(196,5): error TS2300: Duplicate identifier 'resolve'. src/typings.d.ts(12,3): error TS2300: Duplicate identifier 'resolve'.

Tried adding this to tsconfig.json file:

"exclude": [
"node_modules",
"typings/main",
"typings/main.d.ts",
"typings/index.d.ts",
"node_modules/@types/node/globals.d.ts"
]


and this to package.json: "postinstall": "shx rm -rf node_modules/@types/node && echo 'workaround for libs importing @types/node on browser environment'"

then deleted node modules and did fresh install. Nothing has helped.

this is from node_modules/@types/node/globals.d.ts

interface NodeRequireFunction {
/* tslint:disable-next-line:callable-types */
(id: string): any;
}

interface NodeRequire extends NodeRequireFunction {
resolve: RequireResolve; <- duplicate resolve
cache: any;
/**
* @deprecated
*/
extensions: NodeExtensions;
main: NodeModule | undefined;
}

interface RequireResolve {
(id: string, options?: { paths?: string[]; }): string;
paths(request: string): string[] | null;
}

interface NodeExtensions {
'.js': (m: NodeModule, filename: string) => any;
'.json': (m: NodeModule, filename: string) => any;
'.node': (m: NodeModule, filename: string) => any;
[ext: string]: (m: NodeModule, filename: string) => any;
}

declare var require: NodeRequire;


and this is from typings.d.ts:

declare var module: NodeModule;
interface NodeModule {
id: string;
}
declare var CSSstring: string;
interface NodeRequire {
cache: any;
extensions: NodeExtensions;
main: NodeModule;
(id: string): any;
resolve(id: string): string; <- duplicate resolve
}

declare var require: NodeRequire;
declare module '*.json' {
const value: any;
export default value;
}
