Module index.js not found

[Trop-ix]

I was just testing the code when i stumbled upon an 'error'.
It occurs whenever i try to run 'npm run start' or 'npm run start:qrcode'

npm and Nodejs are installed. and the index.js file exists in the stated location...

Am i doing something wrong/missing something, or what could be the problem here?

Looks like you haven't installed dependencies with npm i.
