Angular build keeps asking for different version of CLI

Question

Whenever I try to build the angular app I receive this message from terminal: "This version of CLI is only compatible with Angular versions ^13.0.0 || ^13.1.0-next, but Angular version 10.2.1 was found instead."

I tried uninstall and install (both locally and globally) specific versions of Angular but to no avail. What am I doing wrong.

This is a copy of my package.json file

Inspect your application package.json, most likely your project angular version is 10 whilst CLI is newer.

Update your project to version 13 it with: ng update @angular/cli@^13 @angular/core@^13

Or downgrade your CLI, -g meaning global. npm install -g @angular/cli^10 -g
