How to Update VS 2015 Cordova Node?

I am having a problem with VS2015 Cordova and NPM. I am trying to download the latest version of Angular2 using package.json

{
"name": "BlankCordovaApp5-jspm",
"version": "1.0.0",
"dependencies": {
   "systemjs": "0.19.4",
   "angular2": "2.0.0-alpha.42"
},
  "devDependencies": {

}
}

However, when I do I get the following error: enter image description here

It would seem like the npmjs would be causing the problem, but the issue is an outdated VS2015 Node and NPM. If I download the latest version of Node and then move the $(path) up or add the node folder to external tools, Angular 2 can now be downloaded.

Unfortunately, I now get the following errors: enter image description here

What are the steps to updating Visual Studio Cordova's Node and NPM and not get errors?

Probably this can help you to update npm:

and https://github.com/felixrieseberg/npm-windows-upgrade

and if you update Node.js to 4.x, which makes sense, use the x86 variant and go through this: http://buli.waw.pl/update-node-js-integrated-with-visual-studio-2015/
