Install nvm on windows for managing different node versions | 2019

Install nvm on windows to manage more than one versions of node.

- Download the nvm-setup. zip
- Open the zip & execute the installer
- Read & accept the license agreement
- If you have Node installed, you'll see a notification asking you if you want NVM to control the installed version: click "yes"
- Click finish
- Go to the console and execute

$ nvm ls # lists all installed versions
$ nvm install latest # install the latest version of nodejs and npm

$ nvm ls # should list now the newly installed version
$ nvm use 11.6.0 # start using version 11.6.0

How to install other versions

$ nvm install --version--

And then switch to that version with:

$ nvm use --version--

thank you.
I have to do many migrations coming up 2020


i'm still running node 8.11.3 which is one of the last envs supported on cloud platforms

LTS moved to 10
now LTS is 12


React barely works with 8.11.x, let alone create-react-app


thanks for the help fren

hi this is amazing! I thought uninstall current installed versions is needed for NVM to work.

[kimberlyvillarmente]

thank you so much. I've searched for 3hours and a friend of mine suggested this app. Subscribed!

PS: May I know also if there's other way to remove nodeversion in the nvm ?

Thank you. I think you have to run the shell as administrator?


Troubleshooting:
Note to others that mklink is for command prompt not powershell.exe say.

Also you might need to reboot to sort out your environment variables
