Problem

I recently updated to the latest version of node which is supposed to come with npm pre-installed. Although all the files are there, when I try to call something like npm help in node I get a hanging .... If I try to run it directly from command prompt I get this error:

command prompt error

Any Idea on what the possible issue could be? I am running on windows 7 btw.

Ideas

  • Pathing issues?
  • Conflict with previous installation?
  • Should I just install manually rather than the executable?

Thanks in advance for your help!

    Don’t call npm with node, if you want to see if npm is installed properly (and is in your path) execute the following command in the terminal:

    npm -v

    If you want to install a module: npm install express
