uh hello guys welcome to this video so
0:02
in this video I will show you how to fix
0:04
this error message which comes in the
0:06
command line NVM is not recognized as an
0:09
internal or external command NVM is no
0:13
version manager it is used to manage
0:15
multiple nodejs versions so typically it
0:18
comes because you haven't registered
0:20
this path inside your environment
0:21
variable so I will guide you step by
0:23
step in this video so I'm assuming that
0:26
you have installed node version manager
0:28
inside your system if you haven't
0:31
simply NVM download and uh basically
0:36
first of all download
0:38
NVM so it's a exe file here you can go
0:42
to this GitHub repo and
0:45
simply download This is actually the
0:48
download now button so as soon as you do
0:51
this you will see this exe file will
0:53
come here NVM exe or NVM setup simply
0:58
click on the setup here and
1:00
download that so once you do this I've
1:03
already downloaded this so I as I search
1:07
in the start menu this location comes
1:09
here so this is your NVM here uh if I
1:13
show
1:16
you so if you want to go to this this is
1:18
actually the location here C users then
1:22
your username AB data roaming NVM let me
1:24
show you step by step so if you go to
1:26
your C
1:27
directory uh just need to go to the
1:30
users
1:33
folder and then you need to go to your
1:35
ases
1:37
folder so this is the actual username so
1:40
my username is Asus so you will be going
1:43
to your username and then you need to go
1:45
to this folder which is app
1:47
data and inside this app data folder you
1:50
will be finding a folder called as
1:53
roaming so go to this folder and then
1:57
search for NVM so as soon as you search
2:01
it you will see this folder NVM which is
2:03
node version
2:04
manager so it basically installed this
2:08
is the default location so now we if you
2:12
open command line here in this folder
2:14
and type the command you will see the
2:16
command will perfectly work it will list
2:19
out all the nodejs versions installed so
2:22
now we just need to make sure that we
2:23
simply copy this path and register this
2:26
path globally so that we can use this
2:29
command anywhere in the system so simply
2:32
right click copy this path and
2:35
then go to the environment variable and
2:39
uh go to this system path
2:43
here and just add this path here paste
2:47
it so as soon as you past it the path
2:51
here in the global path environment
2:54
variable click on okay okay okay and
2:58
then you need to restart your command
2:59
line after making the change and uh then
3:03
again you run the command
3:07
here so you will see it will print out
3:09
the version number so if I want to list
3:12
out the versions of nodejs installed so
3:14
you can see now the command is perfectly
3:17
working so in this way you can fix
3:20
this by registering it inside your
3:22
environment variables so that it can be
3:25
accessed in terminals so thank you very
