Installed the latest node.js on Windows8. If I type
npm -version
in the command console I correctly see
1.4.23
However, whenever I use the install command, regardless of the argument, I get the following error
Error: ENOENT, stat 'C:\Users\foo\AppData\Roaming\npm'
What gives? Could this be a permissions issue or?
you can just create an empty folder with "npm" name in path shown in Error
I had the same problem when I tried to install NPM on my work computer. I believe that there is a problem with the installer. I fixed this problem by installing an older version of NPM.
or you can add the folder npm under AppData/Roaming.
Look at this for more information: node.js and npm for windows
I had the same Problem in Windows 8.1 MSDN-VM.
creating the npm Folder manualy fixed it for me. C:\Users\foo\AppData\Roaming**npm**
