I managed to solve it by doing the following :
- Open bundles.json file
- find "view-resources/Areas/MIS/Views/_Bundles/account-layout-libs.min.js" and "view-resources/Areas/MIS/Views/_Bundles/app-layout-libs.min.js"
- then remove "node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.js",
- Re run npm run create-bundles
- Then restart your application
- This worked perfectly.
