Install NodeJs (LTS 18.14.0) on windows 7

Hi there, I'm Omar!
and it is my first DEV post.

the all of JavaScript~front-end~back-end (windows 7 user) users need to install latest version of nodejs...

actually we have two ways:

  1. use the latest version that supports windows 7
  2. or use this way... use the environments.

i have a 100%-guarantee way...
Continue with me:

  1. first go to nodejs website.

    Note

    you need to download Windows Binary (.zip)

  2. Extract .zip file in a desired directory like-Program Files or Program Files(x86)

  3. Open Edit Environment variables for your account with search in windows start menu. open it.

  4. in User variables for [% system username account %], click on New button.

  5. add NODE_SKIP_PLATFORM_CHECK on Variable name.

  6. use 1 on Variable value

  7. in the end, press OK. again OK...


Note

for use in global, follow me:

  1. copy the extracted path of the nodejs .zip file.
  2. open again Edit Environment variables for your account but edit the PATH
  3. add the path in here with use ; in last character.

Try it

now open cmd or power-shell or any command prompt and type node -v... i told you... it works!!

and finally, enjoy the NodeJS and Npm with latest version right now...


Forgive me if I made a mistake.
Because I don't speak English. And I'm learning it.

Tnx u!
