Install Path Windows 10

05.01.2020admin

Install Python in Windows 10. Open the Installer you have downloaded in your Windows PC. Click on the Add python to PATH button. Now python installer has successfully installed everything in your system. So it’s time to check whether python is installed correctly or not.

I had some issues trying to install Node on Windows 10 and found the solution.

I have recently installed 2 games (Gears of War 4) and (Forza Horizon 3) from the windows store. I chose to install them on a separate SSD opposed to the default location (C ) drive. Now I know which SSD in which they were installed but after searching all folders on said SSD, I can't find any of.
Let’s see how we can change the default installation folder in Windows 10. The same can be applied to Windows 7 and Windows 8.1. Changing the default installation folder. Proceed with following steps to change the default location of installation folder for new installing programs.

Edit:It seems like new installers do not have this problem anymore, see this answer by Parag Meshram as my answer is likely obsolete now.

Original answer:

Follow these steps, closely:

http://nodejs.org/download/ download the 64 bits version, 32 is for hipsters
Install it anywhere you want, by default: C:Program Filesnodejs
Control Panel -> System -> Advanced system settings -> Environment Variables
Select PATH and choose to edit it.

If the PATH variable is empty, change it to this: C:Users{YOUR USERNAME HERE}AppDataRoamingnpm;C:Program Filesnodejs

If the PATH variable already contains C:Users{YOUR USERNAME HERE}AppDataRoamingnpm, append the following right after: ;C:Program Filesnodejs

If the PATH variable contains information, but nothing regarding npm, append this to the end of the PATH: ;C:Users{YOUR USERNAME HERE}AppDataRoamingnpm;C:Program Filesnodejs

Now that the PATH variable is set correctly, you will still encounter errors. Manually go into the AppData directory and you will find that there is no npm directory inside Roaming. Manually create this directory.

Re-start the command prompt and npm will now work.

go to http://nodejs.org/

and hit the button that says 'Download For ..'

This'll download the .msi (or .pkg for mac) which will do all the installation and paths for you, unlike the selected answer.

In addition to the answer from @StephanBijzitter I would use the following PATH variables instead:

So your new PATH would look like:

This has the advantage of neiter being user dependent nor 32/64bit dependent.

New installers (.msi downloaded from https://nodejs.org) have 'Add to PATH' option. By default it is selected. Make sure that you leave it checked.

You should run the installer as administrator.

Run the command prompt as administrator
cd directory where msi file is present
launch msi file by typing the name in the command prompt
You should be happy to see all node commands work from new command prompt shell

I had the same problem, what helped we was turning of my anti virus protection for like 10 minutes while node installed and it worked like a charm.

Everything should be installed in %appdata% (C:UsersAppDataRoaming), not 'program files'.

Here's why..

The default MSI installer puts Node and the NPM that comes with it in 'program files' and adds this to the system path, but it sets the user path for NPM to %appdata% (c:users[username]appdataroaming) since the user doesn't have sufficient priveleges to write to 'program files'.

This creates a mess as all modules go into %appdata%, and when you upgrade NPM itself - which NPM themselves recommend you do right away - you end up with two copies: the original still in 'program files' since NPM can't erase that, and the new one inn %appdata%.

So, when you run the installer simply point it to %appdata% and avoid all this.

And note that this isn't anything wierd - it’s what would happen if you ran the installer with just user priveleges.

The reason why you have to modify the AppData could be:

Node.js couldn't handle path longer then 256 characters, windows tend to have very long PATH.
If you are login from a corporate environment, your AppData might be on the server - that won't work. The npm directory must be in your local drive.

Even after doing that, the latest LTE (4.4.4) still have problem with Windows 10, it worked for a little while then whenever I try to:
