Currently I'm running Node.js v. 18.18.2 as suggested in this post with ExB v. 1.13. The command npm ci runs without error in the server directory. It errors in the client directory. I've already tried with the latest Node.js v. 20.1.0. No difference.

It was suggested in my earlier post to run these commands, but they make no difference.
//Turns off ssl
npm set strict-ssl false
//Installs node packages
npm ci
//Turns ssl back on for future protection
npm set strict-ssl true
During this attempted installation of Node.js I checked the Chocolatey box when installing as suggested by an ESRI tech over the phone. I guess I can uninstall then reinstall leaving that unchecked. The guide pretty much leaves you hanging here.
