A small command-line tool that automates upgrading npm on Windows, handling the manual PowerShell/CMD path steps normally required. It lists available npm versions and installs the chosen one from an elevated PowerShell.
Use cases
- upgrade npm on windows
- fix npm not updating on windows
- install specific npm version on windows
- downgrade npm on windows
- automate npm upgrade in powershell
When to choose
- you're on Windows and npm's built-in updater fails or requires manual path fixes
- you need to pin or downgrade to a specific npm version on Windows
When to avoid
- you're on macOS or Linux where npm self-updates normally
- you need a maintained tool - the project hasn't seen active development since 2021
- you're already on a modern Node.js installer that manages npm updates
