I am on Windows 10 trying to install Ionic. I ran the following code in the terminal:

npm install -g @ionic/CLI

And I get this error:

npm ERR! code EEXIST
npm ERR! path C:\Users\Lari\AppData\Roaming\npm\ionic.ps1

I copied and paste this path in windows

C:\Users\Lari\AppData\Roaming\npm\ionic

Deleted all ionic folders, and then this path

C:\Users\Lari\AppData\Roaming\npm

Deleted some ionic files present as well.

Ran npm I -g @ionic/cli and it did install version 6.11.0.
Thanks everyone, hope it helps someone
