I'm working on the Android version of a React Native (v0.43.4) app on my Windows 10 machine, which has turned out to be a real pain compared to working on the iOS version on my Mac. I've got everything set up with Android Studio, platform tools, the Android emulator and so on. Running my app in the emulator also works, but almost every single time I issue the react-native run-android command, it fails with the following error from the React Packager: EPERM: operation not permitted, lstat <some_path_here> I have no idea what this problem is or why it happens. I don't even have to make any changes to the code or included libraries for it to appear. It's enough to just stop the React Packager and run react-native run-android again to get the error. It's really starting to get on my nerves since rebuilding seems to be required a lot more often on Windows than what I'm used to on OS X. I'd love to know what causes this, but until I manage to figure
