ETIMEDOUT Error while installing Node packages on Windows

Question

I am trying to install node packages on my windows machine using npm from a fresh install of node.

however, I am getting ETIMEDOUT errors. I checked few other stacko

Answer 1

I was not able to install any packages before because of this error then after 1 hour, I finally resolved it because I was not behind a proxy but the proxy parameters got set in the npm config thats why that error was showing.

I'am posting it because if anyone is facing the same issue and if they are not behind any proxy then they can use the following commands:-

npm config rm proxy

npm config rm https-proxy

npm config delete http-proxy

npm config delete https-proxy

set HTTP_PROXY=null

set HTTPS_PROXY=null
