I tried follow every suggestion and install/uninstall a hundred times.

Answer
This warning means that old node-uuid module is deprecated and won't be maintained moving forward. The module is still published in NPM for backward compatibility (with the deprecation notice). We can explicitly install uuid module using below commands:
npm uninstall --save node-uuid
npm install --save uuid
