This worked for me (not using proxy):

1. set registry mirror for npm..

   npm config set registry http://skimdb.npmjs.com/registry

found mirror from docs:https://docs.npmjs.com/misc/registry

2. after this try npm install if it works then try to install whatever you want otherwise follow below steps as well

3.npm install -g handlebar //i did because it was showing error in npm log but you can skip

4.after that try to set again official registry

npm config set registry http://registry.npmjs.org

5.now try to install whatever package you want :-)
