Fail to install npm package "npm ERR! errno -4048"

Windows 10 1703
Node 6.11.2
npm 5.4.0
Everytime I try to install an npm package (ex: npm i gulp-notify), I receive the following error:
npm ERR! path

I ran cmd as administrator
I checked folder permissions
I cleared cache even though npm says it does it by itself
I changed npm prefix to C:\Users\User Name\AppData\Roaming\npm
Nothing helps.
Please advise.
Apparently I was trying to install packages locally instead of globally without the -g flag. Sorry about that. All is working now.

I can't get npm install to work in an angular project. The install almost goes through but fails with

What I've tried:
Running from cmd, git bash and power shell both as a regular user and as admin
Deleting the node_modules folder and retrying
installing nvm for Windows and installing nodejs 12.13.0 LTS (which then installs npm), then trying npm install
uninstalling nvm for Windows and installing nodejs 12.13.0 LTS with the site's installer, npm i -g npm, npm install
excluding my workspaces dir in Windows security settings
npm cache verify, npm install
npm cache clean --force, npm install
Can anyone suggest something I may not have thought of? Unfortunately I can't post my package.json or .npmrc as the repository I'm using is not public but from the looks of the error it should be irrelevant.
Update
It looks like it might be a race condition. See here. I'm using npm version 6.13.0.
Another update
I've got other problems now but Jonathan Irvin's comment helped me, in particular this. I disabled windows indexing and gave all permissions to my user.
try npm unlink on the root directory of the project.
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

This is a known issue and lots of npm users have the same problem. My experience is to downgrade my local npm version to 5.0.3 and it worked. For more details, please see this github post: https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/18380

It doesn't get added to package.json either
Can anyone help me please? I've reinstalled latest stable node version but still doesn't work.
Consider trying npm install --no-optional webpack --save-dev.
At least with Node 8.4 + npm 5.4.0 this helped me work around this today.
Close IDE and then try. It works for me
