@christocracy You can just run application after the following step 1.Delete node_modules 2. Delete package-lock.json file 3. Run npm install command then run the application(I used ionic serve cmd using terminal). I followed these steps and solved my problem.

I fixed the issue.

I removed the @ionic/cli-utils dependency from package-lock.json
Then I got the same error for inquirer. To fix that I installed inquirer@latest
Then I got an error about node sass. To fix that I did npm rebuild node-sass
I reran ionic cordova build ios and it worked!
