  • First, ensure that you can execute scripts on your system by running the following command from an elevated PowerShell. To run PowerShell as Administrator, click Start, search for PowerShell, right-click PowerShell and select Run as Administrator.

    Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Scope CurrentUser -Force
    
    npm install --global --production npm-windows-upgrade
    npm-windows-upgrade
