I've tried uninstall / install again both node.js, npm, angular/cli. Nothing works ! still the error keeps coming back. Any idea on your side ?

i solved this using the standard registry using npm config delete registry and after that i could install angular globally and then install the dependencies with npm i

Delete your node_modiles and your package-lock.json:

rm -rf node_modules
rm package-lock.json

Then install all packages again:

npm install

And if that doesn't help try to reinstall the angular devkit:

npm install @angular-devkit/build-angular
