Description

Hello? Guys

Can you give me any info about warning when I use "npm i" command:

npm WARN rollback Rolling back node-pre-gyp@0.12.0 failed (this is probably harmless): EPERM: operation not permitted, scandir '...\node_modules\fsevents\node_modules'

Research direction

Start by reproducing the warning with npm i on the affected Windows setup, focusing on the rollback of node-pre-gyp@0.12.0 and the EPERM scandir error under fsevents. Determine whether the warning is caused by node-pre-gyp or a dependency, then document or validate a fix that prevents the warning or clearly confirms it is harmless.
