Even I'm facing the same issue. Any workaround?

That error is usually due to the dir being open somewhere. Common culprits are ng serve, the editor you're using (VSCode for instance), or having the folder open in explorer. Try closing all of those.

Removing the dist folder manually solved the problem.

Closed as this issue was made obsolete by https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/pull/1455.

None of the solutions here worked for me. Using node v10.15.3 and npm 6.10.2
