I ran npm -v
and it listed a version (I can't remember exactly which) something like 0.6.1.
I ran npm install nodejs-latest
to try an update my package. It went to version 6.6.0
I unstalled node.js completely, redownloaded and installed from https://nodejs.org/en/
Checked npm -v
and it returned 6.5.0
I ran this suggestion from stackoverflow: How can I update npm on Windows?
It lists out the versions available to install and it only goes up to 6.7.0
I'm totally lost. Why can't I get the current version of node.js on this machine?
