I am developing two projects.
Each project requires different node version.(v12, v14)
When I try to use one node version, it occurs node-sass error.
Should I uninstall v12 and reinstall v14?
I heard it can be repaired using nvm.
Somebody tell me how to switch using nvm.
Thanks.
nvm list
nvm use 12.0.0
nvm use 14.0.0

I want to downgrade the NodeJs version to 16 as some of the dependencies I am using in my React app do not support NodeJs 17. I tried this method (another post on stack overflow) also but this thing is not getting installed on my PC.
OS: Windows
Any sort of help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
You can use Node Version Manager(NVM).where you can downgrade or upgrade any node version. Please check
https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm
Windows:

Clearing the local installation of node, to find out where is and delete
where node
Install nvm
For Windows
For others
Show all the versions
nvm ls available
Install what you want
nvm install 16.11.0
nvm use 16.11.0
Check node version
node -v
I have tried several ways and this works, hope it helps.
2022 update with examples
Install nvm (See link readme: Windows uses installer, Linux has a CLI copy+paste bash script).
Restart the shell (if it was open when installed) to register the new path.
If you want 14.18.1, for example: nvm use 14.18.1
If you don't have it installed, it'll let you know. In that case: nvm install 14.8.1 -> repeat #3.
node -v to verify.
Nodejs.org has previous releases versions in their distribution directory. Find the node version you need and install it.
https://nodejs.org/dist/
n is the simplest package to manage your node versions.

It shows node version 12 but with sudo it shows 14, I want to use version 14 in future, How can i configure it to version 14
Install NVM and desired versions of Node, after installing them you can choose any Node versions from the installed list and you can change the Node version in which your project wants to run.
In your case after installing nvm and Node 14.xx, try nvm use 14.xx or else your desired version. This will change to Node 14.xx version.
You can install NVM by going through this link https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm
and after that you can install node versions through NVM itself.
I think this question will help you understand better.
How to change to an older version of Node.js
Just use your version instead of the older version.
I have two versions of node.js installed (10.16.3 and 12.14.1) I use nvm to switch between both. Please how do I uninstall version 10 successfully without affecting version 12?
nvm uninstall 10.16.3 should do it. See https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm#usage-1 for more information.
I'm trying to learn Angular using asp.net core 2.0, since I have no experience with Node.js I'm trying to set up my environment using nvm, which I installed using chocolatey (just in case it makes a difference), as recommended by a friend, the tutorial I'm following tells me to use node 6.9.0 and have installed it and set it as active:
nvm install 6.9.0
nvm ls
nvm use 6.9.0
and I get the proper message telling me 6.9.0 is the active version. However when I do:
node --version
I get
v8.10.0
I use Visual Studio 2017 Pro for my everyday work, and I know it comes with its own version of node and I'm guessing that's what I'm seeing here and probably nvm will have no control over it as it not shown on the list of installed versions, and I know I haven't installed it myself. So my questions are:
What do I have to do to use the version I set with nvm?
Once I have that ready, what do I need to do to have VS use that version instead of its own?
I just worked out how to fix this, I'm posting an answer to help anyone else struggling with this, apparently, VS (or maybe myself :-( ) installed node directly and the one sitting on C:\Program Files\Nodejs was indeed version 8.10.0 and nvm was unable to change override it, so I just uninstalled the standalone node and ran the above commands on nvm and it worked like a charm.
Have installed node 0.12.2, but need to revert to 0.10.33 to run the applications I need to.
I have tried installing 0.10.33 and switching versions using
set 0.10.33 to default with 'nvm alias default 0.10.33'
But node runs previous version (0.12.2) when started again.
I have tried uninstalling node via various methods, but each one has been blocked:
uninstall node
"You must be in root to run this tool"
(I am the only user (with Admin access) on my machine
I tried
cd /
then
uninstall node
But still got
"You must be in root to run this tool"
Tried
sudo uninstall node
"Uninstall Failed...
Reason: ErrorMissingBundle"
I may have installed node with Homebrew - it was a while back, can't quite remember. So tried:
brew uninstall node
"Error: No such keg: /usr/local/Cellar/node"
Other information I can give:
which node
/usr/local/bin/node
I see node and npm in
/usr/local/bin
Any help most appreciated - I'm not a command line expert, and fairly new at Node.
To switch from different node.js version with nvm just use nvm use 0.10.33
It looks like you might be using NVM (node version manager). If you are you can install different versions using
nvm install version_no
and then you can switch versions using the command
nvm use version_no
If you have not used NVM to install node you can uninstall node using the instructions in this answer - How do I completely uninstall Node.js, and reinstall from beginning (Mac OS X).
Then if you need different versions of node I would recommend using NVM, which allows you to install and use different versions of node on the same system. https://github.com/creationix/nvm
