I tried downloading NodeRED into my laptop following exactly the instructions in the quickstart from the downloads page, but cannot install the npm packages...
Please help.
Thanks
I am attaching an image of the output in the command prompt
The error suggests that https://registry.npmjs.org/ is not accessible from the computer. What happens if you try to go to that address in a browser, on the machine you are trying to install on?
So see if you can still reach the address on your browser and if you can, then try the install again
Hi ukmoose, I tried again and am still not able to reach the webpage (I am still getting the same page). Is there another way by any chance to install this software?
Also, to install this software, should I be able to access the page?
Thanks 
still can’t?
Your screenshot showed that you could…
So if you still get that response in your browser try the install again
I just tried installing nodeRED again into my laptop again and this time I got only errors... I am attaching an image of the command prompt below...
Thanks
Google suggests that this may help
npm cache clean --force
or
npm -g cache clean --force
Yaay!!! Finally, I have done it!! Thanks a lot guys!! Although the output in the command prompt was funny... However, I will attach it below.
Thanks a ton 
"I cannot use Dashboard in Windows 7, and the opening is blank. Has anyone encountered this situation?"
Downloading node-red and cannot see dashboard are different questions.
Also, this thread is over 4y old.
Please start a new thread with more details (node version, node-red version, dashboard version, browser type and version)
