choco install npmit downloads the package, install it and set the env variable. At the end of the process you're ready to go with your new package 😄I used it and installed also multiple version of PHP and it handle this perfectly!
Yeah, it's pretty evident i like it pretty much, but really if you have to install stuff on windows, give it a try 😄
I have Chocolatey. But I'm used to install things with npm, especially because most of docs are pointing to npm 😅
Well yes of course, once you enter in the whole npm enviroment you obviously install everything with the npm mackage manager, in this case npm. I use chocolatey for the step before, installing the language/enviroment. Node, python, php and so on. It's amazing for skipping the configuration part making it all ready after one command on terminal
nice newbie tutorial!
Thank you, Philip!

Thank you. Glad to hear that it's useful for you 😀
If pnpm is installed but the where command can't find it, it's likely that pnpm is not in your system's PATH.
pnpm, when installed globally, is usually located in the npm global installation directory. On Windows, this is typically C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Roaming\npm.
To verify this, you can check the npm global installation directory with the following command:
This command will return the directory where global npm packages are installed. pnpm should be in the bin subdirectory of this directory.
If pnpm is indeed there, you can add this directory to your system's PATH following the instructions provided in the previous response.
