When I do npm list, I get this following message.

Sorry, I am completely new to nodejs.

On Windows Install tools and configuration manually: Install Visual C++ Build Environment: Visual Studio Build Tools (using "Visual C++ build tools" workload) or Visual Studio Community (using the "Desktop development with C++" workload) Launch cmd, npm config set msvs_version 2017.
It works without Visual Studio, but you'll need to install Windows SDK: Get Windows SDK from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8442.
node-gyp requires that you have installed a compatible version of Python, one of: v3. 7, v3. 8, v3. 9, or v3.
The reason this happens is that node-gyp evaluates the -pre part of [email protected] as -1. The install then receives a 404 and fails.
gyp http GET http://nodejs.org/dist/v0.8.-1/node-v11.8.-1.tar.gz
gyp http 404 http://nodejs.org/dist/v0.8.-1/node-v11.8.-1.tar.gz
To solve this problem, use a stable release of Node.js. Otherwise, you need to have the Node source lying around, and use the --nodedir flag.
npm install --nodedir=/node/src/
