Change Task Runner Explorer command

Question

594 views Asked by Rabel Obispo At 07 July 2020 at 22:28

In Visual Studio 2019 I have installed the extension call NPM Task Runner.

When I run a the build command the output is:

cmd.exe /c npm run build --color=always

How do I change that to:

npm run build --color=always

Because when I run the first one I get an error.

How can I fix the error or change the command.

P.S.: When I run the command like this npm run build --color=always in the console it works.
