I'm on PC/Windows 10, node15.0.0, npm 6.14.8
I just wanted to install Vue CLI and I got this error.
I have the latest version of Node.js as you can see below. I tried some different ways like npm uninstall -g vue-cli and npm cache clean --force, but, it did not work.

Any idea what that means and how to solve it?
I found that I could do nothing but press enter
Possible fixes:
open cmd as administrator - search for cmd, right-click, and open as administrator.
run this command npm cache clean --force
npm install again in this administrator cmd.
if still didn't work, close all node processes and try these steps again, also can try these after a system restart.

When I execute npm install I get the following error:

I have done the following so far and still no result
Deleted node_modules and package-lock.json file
npm cache clean --force
npm install --force
Delete node and npm and installed again.
Reboot the system
Check permissions
Turn off firewall
Run cmd as administrator
Node version: 10.23.0
NPM Version: 6.14.8
Any help will be appreciated.
I would try running it on another drive/partition. In the past regardless of my permission set sometimes Windows likes to restrict certain operations such as file name changes even if it's supposed to be allowed in a certain folder. If that doesn't work then try on another computer to see if the problem is related with the system environment or not.
Deleting my node_modules and reinstalling all my used packages helped me fix this error.

i run npm install -g nodemon
but it gives the error above
You can understand what is happening by reading the error log
EPERM: operation not permitted, mkdir 'C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\.npm-QXjMEw5N'
EPERM is the code for the permission issue. Here, you cannot create (mkdir) a new directory called .npm-QXjMEw5N inside C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\ because you don't have the permission to do that.
Macro: int EPERM “Operation not permitted.”
Only the owner of the file
(or other resource) or processes with special privileges can perform
the operation.
You can try running the command line as administrator to have the appropriate privilege, then rerun npm install -g nodemon
Try to clear your cache then install again? Something like npm cache clear --force then npm i
New to nodejs and npm. I have installed nodejs and npm using nvm for windows. Now no matter what library I try to install I get:

I've tried clearing the cache, changing the install path, setting the prefix at both the command line and in the config file. Any more suggestions?
Thanks!

when I tried to install npm install -g yo generator-code its showing this error . i have run it three times 2 on windows 1 on Linux but everytime its showing this error how can i fix it
Its a permission issue
i would recommned you configure npm to not require sudo/Admin permission to install global packages.
for now just downgrade your npm version or run your cmd with 'Admin privileges'.
if these steps doesn't help
then run this npm cache clean --force and then try reinstalling your package.
I am trying to create new angular project using the command ng new my-app. And the installed versions are listed below
Angular CLI : 6.0
Node version : 10.5.0
Npm : 6.1.0

temporary fix, downgrade npm to 5.3
npm install npm#5.3 -g
Use administrator privileges. Error says you are not using admin CMD
Install packages after closing your code editor,
Are you using Node Cmd or any IDE(like VSCode) to create new project
try this command
npm i -g #angular/cli
ng new app-name
cd app-name.
ng serve
