Question

I got a problem when I input any npm cmd, it says

internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:584

Operating System: Windows 8 pro 64bit

What shall I do to solve this issue?

Looks like your current directory doesn't contains the myfirst.js file. Please post the output of the dir command — lifeisfoo, Apr 01 '19 at 18:27
I did not use dir command. Directly i goes to the file containing folder and opening the cmd prompt by right click with pressing shift button their. — sufyan bhutta, Apr 01 '19 at 18:37

To get help with your question, you need to add as much details as you can. You'll likely get no answer the way your post stands. — Samuel, Apr 01 '19 at 19:00

Your error message of:

Error: Cannot find module 'C:\Users\NUMAN ALI\myfirst.js'

indicates that Node can't find your myfirst.js file to run within your current directory of: C:\Users\NUMAN ALI. Your myfirst.js file isn't located within this directory so you need to move into the correct directory containing this file, or alternatively create this file in the current directory. Then you need to add your desired JavaScript within this file to run it.

With your comment of: "The file you have just created must be initiated by Node.js before any action can take place" I am going to assume you don't have this file in your current directory. Maybe you could try creating the file in a text editor, such as notepad at the very least on a Windows machine, and adding the JavaScript contents into this file. Then try re-running the file with a node myfirst.js. Check out this accepted answer here as I think this will help you out a lot. Also, for command line help for creating files, check out this link.

Hopefully that helps!
