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 trying to json-server by npm install -g json-server, but everytime I get an error

Image of the error
This is the error that I am continuously getting after numerous tries. I tried removing node cache, I re-installed node.js but couldn't find success.
However, whenever I am running it with administrator or root, I am able to install it. So why is this happening?
I have provided the screenshot of my error, however, still, I will provide the error in writing.

Try running this command:

If that doesn't work for you, try changing the folder permissions for your current user for C:\Program Files\nodejs with the help of this

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

I just wanted to install Vue CLI and I got this error.

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.

My npm version is v12.14.0 and my node version is v12.14.0 .
Delete the node_modules folder and package-lock.json file, then run npm install again.
You should run npm command as a super user.
Try,
sudo npm install
If it doesn't make sense try to delete node_modules and try npm install again
