I cant run > npm install lodash._basetostring or npm anything

Tried reinstalling and running 'npm cache clean' but even that didn't work, so here's my solution:
Delete all files from, you may want to backup the files first but those are corrupted anyway.
<user profile directory>\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules
and then try running npm command, if this works then there's no need to reinstall, just install npm modules using
npm install -g <package names>
Otherwise uninstall node.js, empty above stated folder and then install node.js.
Don't forget to update npm
npm install npm#latest -g

Removed npmlog folder and now I can't use npm

I'm a beginner in linux and npm in general, at first I screwed my npm installation by doing this :
npm conig set prefix usr/bin/env
I really don't know what I was really doing here, but then I got an EExist error whenever I run npm .
I decided to remove npm and node via :
sudo apt-get remove npm
sudo apt-get remove node
And the reinstalled them normally via the apt-get command . I had the same error, so I did a very immature thing and I deleted all folder containing the word npm, and more importantly npmlog, uninstlled and reinstalled node and npm via apt .
Now I'm having this error that I couldn't fix whenevr I use the npm command .

Every command start with "npm" create this error and npm cannot uninstall, update itself)
Please help me fix this error?
update your npm
$ npm install npm -g
I would try to update/install NPM
$ npm update -g npm
I know the answer!
Uninstall nodejs.
Delete all references to npm and nodejs (Program Files, Program Files(x86).
Then also delete those in AppData/Roaming (npm and npm-cache to be sure).
Reinstall nodejs.
It works!

Looks like you should update your angular-cli and clean the cache
npm uninstall -g #angular/cli
npm cache clean --force
npm install -g #angular/cli#latest
npm install

Getting error: Cannot find module 'errno' running node script

I've just installed a fresh copy of Ubuntu 15.10, node 4.2.2 and npm 2.14.7 (with nvm) on a new machine. I have installed webpack and webpack-dev-server globally and installed my project dependencies with npm i.
Now when I try to run my node server I get the following errors:

Any suggestions please?
Node.js searches for modules in the ./node_modules/ directory in the path where the program is.
For example if you script is here /home/user/scripts/somescript.js you should have /home/user/scripts/node_modules/.
Just do npm install errno in here /home/user/scripts/.
It seems that something had gone wrong with my npm install and my project dependencies were only partly installed. Just running npm install again didn't fix it. I did an npm cache clean, removed my node_modules directory and then ran npm install again. The problem was then resolved.

node.js returns "Cannot find module 'lockit-mongodb-adapter'"

I am going through my first node.js project. I've installed lockit , have a app.js file, and when I try to run it I get this error

I am quite certain I have lockit-mongodb-adapter installed.
You need to install the module. Cd to the root of your app directory and run this command and make sure lockit-mongodb-adapter is in your node modules directory.
npm install lockit-mongodb-adapter
Another thing you can do if you are certain it is installed is double check to see what is installed by running this command:
npm list
And this one to see what is installed globally:
npm list -g
Update:
I was able to reproduce the issue you where having. And to resolve it I deleted the module from the node moules directory. And re-installed with the following command:
npm install lockit-mongodb-adapter -save
It now shows up in npm list with no issues:
