I'm opening this issue because:

when I enter the command :npm ,it hint as following:

I'm experiencing exactly the same problem. Why did you close the issue, @Luffyying ?

[Luffyying]

oh,because the problem has been solved,I think there are some conflicts between my global npm and the npm in node,so when delete the global npm it works. ----- 原始邮件 ----- 发件人：Kristian Thy <notifications@github.com> 收件人：npm/npm <npm@noreply.github.com> 抄送人：若水 <lufei_ying@sina.com>, Mention <mention@noreply.github.com> 主题：Re: [npm/npm] Cannot find module 'safe-buffer' (#16905) 日期：2017年06月02日 15点03分 I'm experiencing exactly the same problem.

Thanks for the reply. FYI, uninstalling Node.js, manually deleting the npm and npm-cache directories under AppData and reinstalling fixed the problem for me.

or the local npm..

Actually in my machine even delete global npm or uninstall node.js and install it agian but still not work.

---

so my solution is uninstall npm and go to delete folder npm and npm-cache in C:\Users\pc-name\AppData\Roaming then install it again

[pengxingyun]

you can try npm install safe-buffer...
I use this to resolve. @yimseknyCorarl
