Error running npm install, returns This is a bug in `node-gyp`

I am new to Angular and Node. I am trying to execute an project created using Angular, Neo4j. At first, I tried to run it as it is. However, i am givem the following error after opening the browser:

NullInjectorError: StaticInjectorError(AppModule)[RouterScroller -> >ViewportScroller]: StaticInjectorError(Platform: core)[RouterScroller -> ViewportScroller]: NullInjectorError: No provider for ViewportScroller!

ERROR Error: Uncaught (in promise): Neo4jError: WebSocket connection failure. Due to security constraints in your web browser, the reason for the failure is not available to this Neo4j Driver. Please use your browsers development console to determine the root cause of the failure. Common reasons include the database being unavailable, using the wrong connection URL or temporary network problems. If you have enabled encryption, ensure your browser is configured to trust the certificate Neo4j is configured to use. WebSocket readyState is: 3 Neo4jError: WebSocket connection failure.

​

Then, I tried an clean install following this process:

1. Delete the node_modules from project;
2. Run npm install --global windows-build-tools
3. Run npm install

Then i am given this error:

Sorry for the wall of text. Any suggestions to solve this problem?


Edit:

I've also tried the following:

1. 
   Rebuilding the node-gyp bindings by running node-gyp rebuild, however that returns the following error:
   
   
   
   binding.gyp not found while trying to load binding.gyp
   gyp ERR! configure error
   gyp ERR! System Windows_NT 10.0.19041
   gyp ERR! node -v v14.15.1 gyp ERR! node-gyp -v v7.1.2​
2. 
   I can confirm that node-gyp is installed globally because I ran: npm install -g node-gyp
   
   
3. 
   I tried the gyp rebuild using python 2.7.18 to no avail. Still returning the same error.
   

Edit 2:

I no longer have access to the project. So I cannot test any new solutions pointed.

Regardless, Thank you guys for the help.
