'CALL "C:\Program Files\nodejs\\node.exe" is not recognised as an internal order or external, an executable program or a command file

I have just installed node and npm, and when i do npm - v, i get the following message : 'CALL "C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe" "C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules \npm\bin\npm-cli.js" prefix -g' is not recognised as an internal order or external, an executable program or a command file.

6.14.6

I have tried to change my PATH, and reinstalling, but there is still the same message.

So the trick was that you have to delete the system variable "ComSpec" with the value of "%SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe" After doing this you add a new system variable with the name "ComSpec" and a value set to "%SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe" As stupid as this sounds it will resolve this idiotic issue windows 10 is causing itself. It's almost as if you're telling windows 10 "Hey I know you're confused but here is the right path..."
