Can't install packages globally on Windows using npm
When I try to install a package globally using npm, it complaints about not being able to create some files. How can I solve this issue? I am on Windows 10

As the error suggests, you might not have the appropriate permissions. Therefore, try to launch the cmd as an administrator, and then run your command.
