npm init will not create package.json file - javascript

test directory is empty and running npm init doesn't create a package.json file.
error below says there's no such directory which is confusing as I'm in said directory when running npm init command.
PS C:\Users\Sayee\OneDrive\Documents\test> npm init
Press ^C at any time to quit.

I believe the issue has nothing to do with npm/node, and it might be due to the special filesystem ownership/permission of C:\Users\Sayee\OneDrive\Documents\.

Disabling Controlled folder access in windows under Ransomeware Protection fixed the issue.

You have to start terminal, vs code or webstorm (run as administrator). Just to be admin in system isn't enough.
Was helpful for me.

You can't create a package.json because you are under C:\Windows\System32. Windows is stopping you from creating your own files where it keeps system files.
Change to another directory (prefereably one under C:\Users\YourUsernameHere\ and try again.

In my case, i killed all nodejs running processes and it worked.
This usually happens when you are running node and then try to do an npm install in your project.
Check if you are running gulp like gulp build:server or any npm scripts (like npm run xxxx) for your project. Then stop those and you will be able to successfully complete npm install command.
I had the same problem, I manually removed .node-sass.DELETE from node_modules
Then run:
npm cache verify
npm install
On Windows, closing Node wasn't enough.
I had to open a shell in Admin Mode and stop all Node and Electron processes.
Here are the four apps I know can lock some files in node_modules directories
stop-process -Name node
stop-process -Name electron
stop-process -Name chromedriver
stop-process -Name chrome # ChromeDriver can spawn some apps during tests in hidden mode

My question is how can i prevent those errors and install node js and socket io correctly.
I suggest you install from NVM
after that. just do nvm install
to check. node -v inside your terminal
Install NodeJS from their website, then execute npm init within your project folder.
Afther that you can install dependencies from NPM.
Just read, what's on their websites under "getting started"...
I did npm init and this is my .json file
"name": "chat",
"version": "4.5.0",
"description": "IO",
"main": "app.js",
"scripts": {
"test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
},
"author": "Dan Vasii",
"license": "ISC",
"dependencies":
{
"socket.io" : "*",
"express" : "*"
}
}
Download the Windows installer from https://nodejs.org/en/ .
Run the installer (the .msi file you downloaded in the previous step.)
Follow the prompts in the installer (Accept the license agreement, click the NEXT button a bunch of times and accept the default installation settings).
Here is the solution for the above error.
Go to (nodejs) and Download NodeJs.
Install the NodeJs where you want in your PC
Now try to execute the command npm install
The error will be resolved. Any help needed please refer to this link
