npm not working after clearing cache

This worked for me:

npm cache clean --force 

It should be

npm cache clean  

See https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/cache.html


"As of npm@5, the npm cache self-heals from corruption issues and data extracted from the cache is guaranteed to be valid. If you want to make sure everything is consistent, use

npm cache verify

instead."


try this one npm cache clean --force after that run npm cache verify


Try npm cache clean --force if it doesn't work then manually delete %appdata%\npm-cache folder.

and install npm install npm@latest -g

It worked for me.
