Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

This issue exists in the latest npm version

Current Behavior

After running any command, after it finishes, it does not show up currect directory I am in, making it look like it is still running the command. Here below, I ran first npm version command, then few other commands all marked with red underline. It just shows a blinking icon.

@nitin065 I tried reproducing this issue on windows cmd, but it works as expected. This might have something to do with command prompt setting, You can try updating npm to latest version or clean reinstall of node and npm and check if that fixes this issue. Also, have you tried running it on different terminal program like PowerShell or Bash to see if it happens on them as well ?

[nitin065]

I tried on PowerShell, there I don't see the problem.
I tried with CMDER. There too I am seeing same problem.

I am using latest version of node and I don't have any special settings.

@nitin065 If it works well on windows powershell and windows command prompt then it's not and issue with npm.

[nitin065]

@milaninfy, in windows command prompt it is not working. CMDER is also a tool where it does not work.
I tried in Windows terminal too, where I selected Windows CMD, it don't work there.

Not Working in Tools:

• Windows CMD
• Windows Teminal
• CMDER

Working:

• PowerShell

This does not seem like an npm problem, but your local windows terminal setup.
