I am trying to install yarn through npm on Mac by referring the documentation given here: https://classic.yarnpkg.com/lang/en/docs/install/#mac-stable
npm install --global yarn
However when I run this command in terminal, I am getting the following error and the package is not being installed
npm WARN config global `--global`, `--local` are deprecated. Use `--location=global` instead.
I also ran this command but nothing happened. I am also seeing messages like - this operation was rejected by your operating system. I haven't used yarn in a year, and everything was working fine, but suddenly I am running into all this. Would love to know what I am doing wrong here and how I can resolve this.
This the error message that comes
The operation was rejected by your operating system.

sudo npm install --location=global yarn
This command worked for me
As warning messages indicate, global -global and -local appear to be deprecated. However, instead of global, you can use the -location=global command.
-global and -local is deprecated.
Use This command:
npm install --location=global create-react-app
Instead of:
npm install -g create-react-app
I keep getting the same error message when trying to create a new angular project.
I tried to create a new angular project using Windows Powershell with the following commands:

I obtained the error message below. I already tried to reinstall angular cli and I'm running Powershell using Administrator.

Package install failed, see above.
I found the problem: My antivirus was somehow blocking the files without me knowing. It worked once I paused my antivirus during the installation.
In windows10 I disabled the windows defender / windows security ==> realtime protection and try again npm install command and it worked
1.
2.
3.
NOTE : Turn on the real time protection again after installation complete.
Restarting the machine worked for me.
I had this problem on MAC. I just added 'sudo' before the command and it worked.
sudo npm install -g parcel-bundler
I tried opening CMD with Run as Admisnistrator then run npm i and it worked for me
I'd just like to add a small little answer based on Qadir Hussain's answer.
If you disable "Realtime Protection" in Windows Security, you're going to leave your laptop or PC vulnerable to any viruses that may infect it when "Realtime Protection" is off. This may seem a bit impossible if you're only installing an NPM package, but some apps may have a hidden background process waiting for "Realtime Protection" to be disabled, and when it is, it could inject a virus.
That been said, there's still an option.
First things first, open Windows Security by typing "Windows Security" in the Start Menu and tap "Open".
After that, go to "Virus & Threat Protection".
Next, scroll down until you find "Manage Settings" under "Virus & Threat Protection Settings".
Then, scroll down until you see "Exclusions". Under "Exclusions" there's a link that says "Add or remove exclusions".
Once that's done, tap the button that says "Add an exclusion". Then tap "Folder" on the drop-down menu.
Choose the node_modules directory that is giving issues.
Last but not least, Allow administrative permissions.
Finally, exit Windows Security.
I wouldn't recommend excluding your entire Projects folder, as that will disable all scans for the directory.
Small disclaimer here, I'm only making this answer as a means of helping others without disabling "Realtime Protection". While I'm not encouraging this, this might help fix a common problem.
Have a good day. :)
For me, there are several possibilities:
Intercepted by anti-virus software, resulting in inoperability.
It is locked by IDE, resulting in inoperable.
The task is locked by npm running, resulting in inoperable.
Cancelling the npm start process and closing the terminal window (I use Hyper Terminal) worked for me (using Win 10).
I was then able to uninstall an npm package and install another.
I had visual studio code running. I turned it off and boom! worked for me!
To me, using Windows 10 the only thing that solved this problem was: exclude the node_modules folder, open Visual Studio Code in Admin mode in the project folder, and execute the following command:
npm install -g --unsafe-perm
For me the issue was with npm version I was using. I changed to a npm version which did not have the bug by using the below command:
npm install --global npm#8.3.1
I found this solution in a github issue:
Link to github issue
Hope it helps you like it did me!
was facing this problem and this is how it got solved :
-stoping the execution of the development server for both front-end and backend:
two things:
try admin.
make sure other processes does not occupying the folder/file
with me, it was not related to antivirus.
it appears that a process occupied this folder. in my case a node process occupied my node_modules folder.
i found it out by using process-explorer - i searched the path end found that a node process using this folder(even though I closed it! very common in windows), so i ended this process and then i did not got this error anymore.
I had the same issue What I have done wrong is I had set the npm registry to a local registry, without knowing that I faced this issue once I reset to globally using npm config set registry https://registry.npmjs.org/ error went away.
I tried everything above.
Deleting node_modules and re-installing did the trick for me.
This happened when I tried installing a new npm dependency, jest, with:
npm i --save-dev jest
I got it working by simply rerunning the command.
I tried to install react-native-dynamic-form. Now npm is also not working.
Why isn't it?
PS D:\reactNative> npm install -g react-native-cli

giving error, 405?
Many problems related with npm have some common solutions.
Here is 2 of them:
Try to update npm with command npm update or just npm install - (this one just install's the latest version so this 2 commands are common)
Try to clean Your cache with npm cache clean
Good luck :)
When I attempt to install nativescrtipt by running npm i -g nativescript, I receive the following error:
npm WARN checkPermissions Missing write access to

npm ERR! errno -2

npm ERR! enoent This is related to npm not being able to find a

I have tried to run the command as sudo and receive the same result. I also attempted to add write permission to the node_modules directory.
I am running node v10.6.0 on macOS High Sierra.
Add sudo command to allow you run the program with security privilege
sudo npm i -g nativescript
I followed this link: https://docs.npmjs.com/resolving-eacces-permissions-errors-when-installing-packages-globally to resolve the issue.
I installed nvm and updated to the latest version of node. Then, the command npm i -g nativescript successfully installed the nativescript-cli.
The issue does not appear to be coming from nativescript, but an issue with my node installation.
Run the following command sudo npm i -g nativescript
This will forcefully with security permission install the missing scripts to run the npm command again with no bugs or warnings

If I delete the node_modules directory completely then run npm install again it seems to work, but running it again fails.
What you can try is:
Be sure that you use cmd promt in Admin mode.
If you use VS Code, kill all node procceses. Close it and try again.
Delete package-lock.json and node-modules folder and try again.
Change the node version. For example try the old one v6.11.2
Try to do npm cache clean --force
Try to remove {package}.DELETE in ~/AppData/Roaming/npm/node_modules after the initial npm i -g {package} and retry npm i -g {package}
One of it can help. But not for sure. The status of issue with this problem is open for the moment.

I just had this issue when setting up a new machine. None of the cache clean/uninstall/reinstall steps worked for me.
However, I was able to resolve it by updating npm to the latest version. I had 5.6.0 installed, but using npm-windows-upgrade to install the latest version (5.7.1) cleared up the dependency issues.
See this answer for more information on upgrading npm on Windows:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/31520672/91189
This most likely happened because you updated your node version and because you probably already had this repo sitting on your machine before that particular update, the package-lock.json file whose sole purpose is to track the present and past state of your node_modules file and maintain a very updated dependency tree such that amongst entities using your code there will be consistency installing exactly the same dependencies ;
Entities using your code include
Teammates
Deployments (AWS ECS),
and Continuous integration tools like Travis CI that are running your code,
Try to delete the package-lock.json file. Run the npm install command and you should be fine.
The last thing you should try doing is deleting the missing package if you are not sure of what you are doing, it's usually better to avoid this.
Goodluck.
