Just move ahead with the following command
npm cache clear --force
For verifying, you can run the following command to check the contents of the cache folder, garbage collecting any unneeded data, and verifying the integrity of the cache index and all cached data.
npm cache verify

How about adding this tag to index.html ? Is this valid?
<meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate" />
<meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache" />
<meta http-equiv="Expires" content="0" />

This works for HTML changes that don't appear until after clearing cache. Here's a great article that explains it well: "For a single-page web application like Angular, index.html is like a gate for everything else. In Angular and almost all the other single-page web applications, routing happens in the front-end. Basically, by loading index.html, we are loading all the other pages too (If not lazy-load). Hence, If index.html is cached, then every other page is cached as well." http://yuezhizizhang.github.io/angular6/cache-control/2019/06/07/angular-cache-control.html – Alec Jan 15 '21 at 15:20
