Expected/desired behavior

npm installs packages successfully

OS and Version?

Windows 11

Versions

Mention any other details that might be useful

Deleting the package-lock.json allows the install to work, but I then get a build error in devices.ts "TS2345: Argument of type 'SymmetricKeySecurityClient' is not assignable to parameter of type 'X509SecurityClient | TpmSecurityClient | SymmetricKeySecurityClient'. ", I'm not sure if this is related or a separate issue.
