How to reverse "sudo chown -R 501:20"

Ran npm i -g {library} inside my project and npm gave me an error because I didnt use sudo. instead of using sudo on a second attempt, I followed npm's suggestion to run sudo chown -R 501:20 "/Users/vorousjames/.npm" (inside my project).

now anytime I run an npm command (anywhere), I get bash: /Users/vorousjames/.npm-global/bin/npm: No such file or directory

How do I fix this so I can use npm again?

try running this in the terminal export PATH="/Users/vorousjames/.npm:$PATH if it works add that to your .bash_profile
