javascript - Can't find open when starting npm start (ENOGIT git is not installed)

Question

I am trying to install bower as I am setting up a development environment on my laptop.

I installed git using the npm install procedure but it reports wrong operating system.
I used npm remove git and it appeared to remove it and then I installed git for windows.

Even though I apparently removed git it still reports wrong operating system.

Has anyone got a foolproof way of installing a nodejs environment on a windows 10 PC, as I have been trying for days without success?

Here is the message:

C:javatest>bower install
bower jasmine-core#^2.5.2       ENOGIT git is not installed or not in the PATH

What ENOGIT mean?
Please help!

Answer 1

As the error says, git needs to be installed and should be added to PATH ( which is an Environment System Variable)

[ When you install git, there's an option to add it to PATH in the installation steps ]

if you want to add to PATH after git installation please follow these steps:

• From Start search for Advanced System Settings
• Open Environment Variables
• In System Variables section, search for Path, select it and choose Edit
• Click New, and add the path to git cmd, (ex: "C:Program Files (x86)Gitcmd")
