If you are using a newer version of nodejs try uninstalling and using node-v10.15.3

Finally my issue has been resolved by following these below steps

firstly i installed npm install node-gyp in my local folder and downgraded my firebase-tools version from 3.17 to 3.16 and Mainly i disabled my Anti Virus below is the reference link for that
