I am working through the nodeschool.io workshops and the second exercise of promise-it-wont-hurt is instructing me to install es6-promise.
Using my Windows 7 command prompt, I am typing npm install es6-promise (and some other variations) and I am getting the message.
npm ERR! code E404
npm ERR! 404 Not Found: es6-promise@latest
npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in:

I've just cleared my dependencies and my other node_modules from a past project so maybe I need have some other packaged installed to get this one.
Edit:
Here's the extended debug log:

It seems have configured a custom npm mirror, supposedly running at http://localhost:15443/ . This mirror does not have es6-promise, for whatever reason.
You can reset this to the normal npm by running
npm set registry https://registry.npmjs.org/
After this, you could install es6-promise by running npm install es6-promise again. This may be necessary for your tutorial.
However, in general, promises (and async/await) are already available out of the box in your node version, without having to install anything.
