can't update the node js version and npm version

I update my npm version to 6.9.0, after that i can't create react app. most of the commands are not working. so i uninstall the node js and reinstall that (latest version). when i try node --version it show version as v6.4.0 and npm version as 6.9.0 but i want to change node version to 10.15.3 and npm version as 6.4.1 how to fix this issue

Solution

  • The issue is that you have a second Node (v6.4.0) installation under /Users/gowtham/.nvm/.
    Just remove that directory.

    rm -r /Users/gowtham/.nvm/

    Like Zuriel suggests below, using nvm to switch the version of Node used or switching back to the system version are other options.
