node.js - How to change node version with nvm

Question

I'm using yeoman to create a project, when I try to use gulp I run the cmd : gulp serve an error tells me that I need an older version of node (8.9.4), knowing that I've installed the latest version (10.14.1).

So i installed nvm to change the node version, I had to set it into path C:, then I run with success : nvm install 8.9.4 and when I try to use it : nvm use 8.9.4, its always the latest version that is used

if i try to use 8.10.0, then run node -v it tells me access refused, same to any node command

Answer 1

you need to use

nvm use 8.10.0

note that you need to run this command as administrator
