npm Error EEXIST when trying to install babel-preset-es2015 on Windows 10

I get this error when trying to install babel-preset-es2015 using npm on Windows 10.

(node:8392) fs: re-evaluating native module sources is not supported. If you are using the graceful-fs module, please update it to a more recent version.

Move it away, and try again.

Edit: I already tried deleting that file, unbuilding, trying again and it throws the same error.

This problem is because of older version of npm. Update your npm and retry https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/11343

Try this:

To do this add the following lines to your ~/.npmrc and run npm install again.

; avoid EEXIST lock errors
cache-lock-wait=30000  
cache-lock-retries=10  
cache-lock-stale=300000
