Why does NPM always throw an error, no matter what the command is?












0














Whenever I type any NPM command, I get this error:



C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0>npm -v

internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:582

    throw err;

    ^

I've tried reinstalling node, but I keep getting that same error. I've noticed that if I search NPM in the "add or remove programs" page in settings, I get no results, if that's useful.



My version of Node is v10.13.0

I'm using Windows 10 Home, version 1803






npm windows-10

I would remove node: How do I completely uninstall Node.js, and reinstall from beginning (Mac OS X)



And then reinstall it with NVM: https://github.com/creationix/nvm like this:



> nvm install 8.9.1

> nvm list  // Will show you available NodeJS distribution

>    8.9.1

// So tell nvm to use your version

> nvm use 8.9.1

> nvm list

>    * 8.9.1 (Currently using 64-bit executable)

> node -v

> 8.9.1

Run scheduled task as local user group (not BUILTIN)

0 I am trying to run a scheduled task with User Group (not a single user). This is working fine when I in the field "when running a task, use the following user account:" insert BUILTIN User Group (for example: Administrators or Users). But when I try it with the created Local User Group (example: TestGroup) it is not working. The Users in the TestGroup are the same as in the Administrators group. What could be the problem?
