For 'nvm' command to work, you need to make sure the nvm location is set to the PATH environment variable on Windows if not already in place and you run the command under administrator privileges. You can do this via the command line using PowerShell.

  • Open the PowerShell window under Administrator privileges 'Run as Administrator'
  • Update by appending to the PATH the Environment Variable by running the following command in PowerShell

$env:Path += "C:\Users\<YOUR_USER_NAME>\AppData\Roaming\nvm"

  • Important! Open a new CMD or PowerShell window under Administrator privileges 'Run as Administrator' and type nvm --version
