Angular update returns a dependency error

Question

I'm trying to update my angular project, and ng update @angular/core drops the following error:

Using package manager: 'npm'

ng update @angular/core --force returns the same error.

I've tried to install @angular/animations@11.0.7 manually, but it returns the same error.

What should I do?

Thank for the advices in advance!

Try:

npm install --legacy-peer-deps
