Since NPM 6 you can do clean install.

npm clean-install

That would try to remove the node modules folder and safely install the packages by checking the package-lock.json.

P.S. If that fails for some reason, check here for troubleshooting.

I faced same issue. (cb() never called!). In my case folder has not read/write permission. Check your folder permission assign read/write permission to fix the issue.

In my case problem is due to space not enough in the disk. So I cleaned up some space. Problem get solved.

The best way to resolve is update the npm version and install again.

npm install -g npm

I had the same issue and I installed it by excluding package-lock.json using below command

npm i --save @angular/cdk --no-package-lock

OR manually deleting package-lock.json
