每个npm安装都会发生此错误：“ npm ERR！ 无法读取未定义的属性'resolve'。”

Question

Intro

Greetings, all!

I'm on a dual boot system where Node, NPM, and the like worked well in Windows 7, but since Win7 has stopped booting - perhaps due to hardware problems - that leaves Windows 10.

Every time I try using npm install (or some variant, like npm i -g), I get an error at least similar to what is listed below. This has prevented me from using npm i to get the newest npm.

I have tried finding and deleting package.json, but I'm unsure which package.json to remove. There was one in C:\\users\\\\ but that has since been deleted. Moving or deleting node_modules from my node or npm directory hasn't fixed the problem.

I've tried checking the Internet for various solutions to this problem, including installing the latest NodeJS.

Versions

Obtained via node -v and npm -v.

Node: 10.16

NPM: 6.9

This is the log which displays upon running npm i -g npm.

Answer 1

I had the same problem with nodejs 10.16.0 (Windows x64 version) and npm 6.9.0. After uninstalling and downgrading to nodejs 10.15.3 and npm 6.4.1 npm i seems to work correctly again.
