Fixing npm path in Windows 8 and 10

Question

Have done a lot of googling, tried reinstalling node.js using the official installer, but my npm pathing still doesn\'t work.

This doesn\'t work

npm          


        

Answer 1

When you're on Windows but running VS Code in Windows Subsystem for Linux like this

linux@user: /home$ code .

you actually want to install NodeJs on Linux with

linux@user: /home$ sudo apt install nodejs

Installing NodeJs on Windows, modifying PATH and restarting will get you no results.
