Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, open 'F:\projects\www\build\15.js'

In my situation it helped:

  1. clean cache with
npm cache clean --force
  1. install the latest version of npm globally as admin:
npm install -g npm@latest --force
  1. clean cache with
npm cache clean --force
  1. Try to install your component once again.

I hope this fix your issue. If it does not help, try to switch of antivirus program for a while and repeat.
