How to Upgrade NPM Version on Windows PC

ByMohammed Rashid Posted on

In order to compatible with the latest version of nodeJS you might also want to update npm. Otherwise, you will be unable to download packages using npm. As a React Native developer chances are high that you come across with npm compatibility issues.

To fix npm upgrade issues, just follow the steps below:

First of all uninstall existing npm from your windows pc using the command npm uninstall -g npm . Now go to https://nodejs.org and download the lastest version of nodejs and install on your PC. This will install the latest version of npm too.

I hope this will fix npm compatibility errors on your windows PC.
