Angular not working after cloning to a different PC

Question

so I got a new pc and I wanted to pass my angular project through github. I used 1.npm i 2.npm i @angular/cli@latest -D 3. ng update

And Everytime I'm trying to run the project with ng s it keeps sending me this error:

This version of CLI is only compatible with Angular versions ^9.0.0-beta || >=9.0.0 <10.0.0,
but Angular version 8.2.14 was found instead.

Please visit the link below to find instructions on how to update Angular.
https://angular-update-guide.firebaseapp.com/

I tried using the instructions at the link.

This is my Angular version when typing ng --version:

Angular CLI: 9.0.1
Node: 12.16.0

This is the package.json:

  }
}

I'm really clueless about it... I would be glad if you help me.

The version of Angular that you are using in the project is lower than the version that needed for the latest version of Angular CLI. I would recommend you to downgrade the Angular CLI version to 8.3.25

npm uninstall -g @angular/cli
npm cache clean
npm install -g @angular/[email protected]

And change the version of Angular CLI in your devDependencies:

npm install -D @angular/[email protected]
