I'm trying out a Resume Creator from Github. It calls for npm install, but when i run it, it outputs multiple error messages such as: npm ERR! Verification failed while extracting material-design-icons@3.0.1: and (this shows up hundreds of times, with different files) npm WARN tar ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'D:\best-resume-ever\node_modules.staging\rxjs-7f4abf76_esm5\internal\operators\findIndex.js.map'

I have tried reinstalling Node, clearing cache, I'm aware that I'm behind a proxy, but I've worked around it. I've tried cloning the git onto another drive, still no change. Other project work fine.

I expected a finished npm install with no errors, acutal output was a long list of "npm WARN tar ENOENT: no such file or directory, open "path"

    I just tried and it works fine for me. Try deleting `package-lock.json` and run `npm install` again. – JKleinne Oct 28 '19 at 14:33

    Hello. There is no package-lock.json in my directory – WhatstheprobBob Oct 28 '19 at 14:45

Do you have git installed on your machine? If you don't, you need to install it from here: https://git-scm.com/downloads.

Check your error log again. If you have this error near the bottom of your log, you definitely need to install git.

 npm ERR! syscall spawn git
