I installed NVM from the nvm-setup.zip Then, at the command prompt, I ran
nvm install 8.11.2
Then I ran
nvm use 8.11.2
which output
now using node v8.11.2 (64-bit)
Then I ran
SET PATH=C:\Program Files\Nodejs;%PATH%
However when I type
node
I get
'node' is not recognized as an internal or external command
I removed the following folders ( kirst being my user name)
C:\Users\kirst\AppData\Roaming\npm
C:\Users\kirst\AppData\Roaming\npm-cache
C:\Program Files\nodejs
Then I ran the following at the command prompt ( 8.11.2 being the version I wanted)
Nvm uninstall 8.11.2
Nvm install 8.11.2
Nvm use 8.11.2
