App failed to start due to Meteor update patch

Question

My app is not starting and I am receiving this message on localhost:3000 but I am unable to update "Meteor update --patch" , when I type meteor update --patch in command line with admin permission , it says invalid command, please let me know if I can overcome this issue.

=> A patch (Meteor 1.7.0.4) for your current release is available!
   Update this project now with 'meteor update --patch'.

Your application has errors. Waiting for file change.
Started MongoDB.

The errors is not caused by the patch notification, although the patch may resolve it. Unfortunately, I have never tried installing meteor on Windows so I can't really help with that. — MasterAM, Aug 14 '18 at 06:38

You have to install dependencies before starting the app:

meteor npm install
