Question

I\'m getting an ERROR when trying to run ng build on my angular 4 app.

EPERM: operation not permitted, lstat \'\'

Answer 1

Error : Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, lstat 'C:\Users\Administrator'

We encountered this error after the Windows update.

This Solution worked for me;

1. Go to C:\Users\Administrator
2. Rename the file NTUSER.DAT as NTUSER-old.DAT
