Error: installing sharp NodeJs module using npm

I want to install Sharp module in my NodeJS project. I try to install it with npm install sharp command, but I am facing the below error:

npm ERR! code 1
npm ERR! path D:\project\node_modules\sharp
npm ERR! command failed
l) || (node install/can-compile && node-gyp rebuild && node install/dll-copy)
npm ERR! sharp: Downloading https://github.com/lovell/sharp-libvips/releases/download/v8.12.2/libvips-8.12.2-win32-x64.tar.br

I also tried to use all of the possible solutions in the "Can't install Sharp" related question, but no one is worked. I can't find any solution to solve this problem, and I decided to ask for help here.

I am using VScode v 1.63, NodeJS v16.13.2 and windows 10. Can anyone help me to solve this problem? Is there any way to install this module manually? and is it related to downloading "libvips-8.12.2-win32-x64.tar.br" file?

Edit: When I use npm i --verbose sharp comment, the installation gets stuck in the following section:
