npm -g install issue

Question

I am not able to install anything and also can't able to run any npm script form package.json

PS D:\Users\Subho> npm install -g json-server
npm WARN retry will retry, error on last attempt: Error: EBUSY: resource busy or locked, rename 'D:\Users\Subho\AppData\

This error is often caused by anti-virus or anti-malware software. see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/36835882/npm-err-tarball-destroy-is-not-a-function — Matthew Bakaitis, Jul 26 '17 at 17:48
Not anti virus I guess. There is some version problem. See https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/17931 — Subhojit Mondal, Jul 27 '17 at 02:23

Actually, I have also posted this question on GitHub. The perfect solution is needed to upgrade the latest npm stable version. Here is the GitHub issue link: https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/17931
