Requires Node.js 12 or newer.
Install Meteor by running:
npm install -g meteorIf Meteor is already installed, it will do nothing.
Uninstall by running:
meteor-installer uninstall
npm uninstall -g meteorOn Windows,The installer runs faster when Windows Developer Mode is enabled. The installation extracts a large number of small files, which Windows Defender can cause to be very slow.
It is not recommended running the installer and meteor as administrator. Otherwise, if the administrator is a separate user the meteor command might not always be found. If your current setup needs administrator rights to use npm install -g (sudo), you will need to run it with "sudo npm install -g meteor --unsafe-perm".
We strongly advise against this. You can always change your npm modules permissions to your current user, more info here:
If you use a node version manager that uses a separate global node_modules folder for each Node version, you will need to re-install the meteor npm package when changing to a Node version for the first time. Otherwise, the meteor command will no longer be found.
