VS 2015 community edition (at home), npm 3.10, Angular 2
Im trying to pull get Angular2 setup within an ASP.Net MVC 5 app. The template I started with used an older version of Angular, so I updated the package references.
When I build, the first error in the list is:
Build:Cannot find type definition file for ‘node’
There are dozens of other errors after that but Im assuming most are due to this first issue.
Here is the package.json and typings.json
package.json
{
"version": "1.0.0",
"name": "aspnet",
"private": true,
"scripts": {
"postinstall": "typings install",
"typings": "typings"
},

"typings": "~2.1.1"
}
}
typings.json

"node": "registry:dt/node#6.0.0+20160909174046"
}
}
If I try to update just the typings, I get these messages
*typings WARN deprecated 11/21/2016: "registry:dt/node#6.0.0+20160909174046" is deprecated (updated, replaced or removed)

[ update ]
cleaning out my node_modules folder, then running npm install again cleared things up. This seems to happen most often when I move a project folder to another location on my system.

I had several problems updating packages through visual studio. From now i always update or add packages with the powershell console.
Start
PowerShell
and navigate to the folder wherepackage.json
is located and then runnpm install
Restart visual studio after the installation is done.You can also try to delete your
node_modules
folder then runnpm install
Hope this will solve your problems.
