I am using windows 10 and I am trying to create an ionic project using the sample template on the github, but I am getting the following error:

I had similar problem here: Npm error after update ionic 2 but now is solved.

You can see my answer, but try this:

  1. Uninstall ionic and cordova with: npm uninstall -g ionic cordova
  2. Uninstall nodejs with the windows installer/uninstaller or use something like IObit Uninstaller to perform a clean and complete uninstall.
  3. Manually remove the npm-cache folder located in C:\Users\{YourUserNameHere}\AppData\Roaming\npm-cache (in my case npm cache clean doesn't work)
  4. Restart your PC and now install nodejs, you can see that now there is a new version v5.8.0 and works perfect with ionic (at least for me).
  5. Install ionic and cordova: npm install -g cordova ionic@beta and have fun!

Like i see in your errors, you tried v5.6.0 node version and 2.0.0-beta.17 ionic version, try now with v5.8.0 and 2.0.0-beta.19 which are the last versions at the moment.

P.S: Ofcourse don't forget to open the cmd.exe or whatever command prompt you are using, as Administrator.

P.S2: Sorry if my english isn't perfect, but you will understand me.
