[UPDATE]
This issue was originally solved by uninstalling tsc with npm uninstall tsc (as suggested by the marked answer). However, the issue came back and after a long time had passed I tried using Windows Server for Linux (WSL) with VSCode. It did the trick immediately, so that is the solution I've stuck with.
I am having an issue running the tsc command using an NPM script:
"scripts": {
"build": "tsc"
},
Running tsc in the windows command terminal runs fine, but running tsc using the NPM script does not. When I run tsc in the NPM script, I get the following in the command console:
> npm run build
> [email protected] build
> tsc

I have noted that it says Error: Cannot find module 'D:\Documents\~College\~Coding\tsc\bin\tsc' and I think that is the root of the problem because such a folder ~Coding\tsc does not exist, but I don't understand why the script is attempting to access the folder, nor do I know how to fix it.
Here is my tsconfig file:

I have tried:
- Globally installing typescript with
npm i typescript -g - Reinstalling typescript locally with
npm i typescript --save-dev - Running
npx tscinstead of justtscin the windows console and npm script (both failed with the same error shown above).
