I'm getting 'access is denied' when I'm using nvm -v command in windows 10. I have got the similar issue here NVM is Access Denied

But he himself gave a solution which is not working for me.

Is there any solution for this problem?

I encountered the same issue and solved it as follows:

  1. Uninstall "NVM for Windows 1.1.7"
  2. Run the installer nvm-setup.exe as Administrator

  3. Open an elevated Command Prompt (with Administrator privileges) and run

    • nvm install 8.12.0
    • nvm use 8.12.0

Now running node -v in a non-elevated Command Prompt works without issue. Hope this helps!

Not like the other comments, you don't have to run the installer nvm-setup.exe as Administrator. Just install it like a normal software.

Make sure that when you run nvm use xxx, you run it in Command Prompt with Administrator privilege.
