Any npm's command is not working.

I am using windows 8.1 and I installed npm successfully.

I heard that ENOENT error can be fixed if I make a folder relate to the error path but

error path contains 'C:\Program, I cannot make that file.

How can I solve this problem? I tried to uninstall npm, I failed.

This problem happened because I tried to change prefix for npm but something goes wrong

It looks like Node doesn't like being installed in a location with spaces in the name. This isn't particular unusual, since it uses /usr/local by default, at least on Unix (including Linux and OSX). Still, bummer. — Chris Jester-Young

I found way to fix it.

OK, the reason why this problem happened was that I usually use CMD with administrator's admission.

Because of that setting, actually, I don't need to change prefix of npm but I just want to practice what I learn in my current book.

So I tried to change prefix but accidentally, Using

npm config set prefix C:\program files

I changed the prefix 'C:\program' like this.

because of special character : , I cannot create name of fold including : .

because of damn prefix, npm was totally not working.

I searched npm folder, I found npmrc file but it did not help.

Finally, I found .npmrc at C:\Users\myName .

there, the prefix was setted at C:\program .

I delete prefix and Now it is working!!!!!

Bye Bye let's master nodejs
