I fixed it by manually removing bcrypt from package.json and then manually installing it

The version of bycrpt Mosh uses in this course has been versioned up and it has created breaking changes. To fix this issue with npm i of bycrpt. Uninstall bycrpt in the terminal or remove from package.json under dependencies. Then run npm i bycrpt and the latest version will be installed in the node modules. This will fix your issues.
