   The error indicates that it couldn't install `cordova-plugin-media-capture` because it has a dependency on `cordova-plugin-file@5` but you have another plugin that expects version 4 of `cordova-plugin-file`. In other words, you have plugins that is incompatible with each other.
   
   `cordova-plugin-media-capture` depends on `cordova-plugin-file@5` in version 2, all of these versions are quite out-dated, many of which will have issues with modern platform versions. Therefore, it will likely be best to spend time to update all plugins and platform versions to their latest available. These upgrades will likely introduce breaking changes that you will have to work through, in both in required development tools as well as your application code.
   
   If you cannot upgrade packages for whatever reason, then you can _try_ using the `--force` flag when adding plugins which will forcefully install the version despite the version incompatibility, but things may break during application runtime. Milage will vary.
   
   Closing as not a bug.
