I am trying to install the mathjs library, using the node package manager.

When i go to hte official docs (https://www.npmjs.com/package/mathjs) is see this:

npm install mathjs

However, when i run the command i get this error message.

npm WARN tar TAR_ENTRY_ERROR UNKNOWN: unknown error, write

I have seen a similar post here: npm ERR! on npm install
But there was no solution given.

I am using Node.js v20.3.0 on windows 11.

Is there a flag that i am missing or what have i done wrong or what needs to be done to make this work please ?
