  • Remove Node.js from your system and all the node_modules. You can find more details on how to do that in this question.
  • Make sure everything is deleted by calling which node and node -v. These commands should give you an error (which is what we're going for here).
  • Install nvm. Then install Node.js using nvm.
  • Never call nvm, node or npm with sudo. This will "lock" your modules and restrict them to the sudo user and cause a lot of trouble.
