Description

I am unable to install packages or themes on Atom. I can't even view the featured themes or packages. I keep getting this message: `module.js:540 throw err; ^

Error: Cannot find module 'C:\Users\Me\AppData\Local\atom\app-1.23.3\resources\app\apm\lib\cli.js' at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:538:15) at Function.Module._load (module.js:468:25) at Function.Module.runMain (module.js:684:10) at startup (bootstrap_node.js:187:16) at bootstrap_node.js:608:3`

Steps to Reproduce

1. I tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it
2. Tried to manually set a path
3. Installed node.js because previously it said node.js was not detected
4. Tried to debug, use atom in safe mode but atom wasn't recognized in command line

Expected behavior: [What you expect to happen] I thought step 2 would fix the problem but it didn't. Step 3 just caused a different problem

Actual behavior: [What actually happens] It continued not being able to install or view themes/packages Reproduces how often: [What percentage of the time does it reproduce?] I've tried this over 5 times and it produced the same result

Versions

Atom:1.23.3 Node:8.9.4 Windows 10

Additional Information

I haven't made any changes to Atom when I re-installed it. I'm not really familiar with node. This is a new problem for me. Packages and themes were easily installable in previous version of Atom.

Does the file C:\Users\Me\AppData\Local\atom\app-1.23.3\resources\app\apm\lib\cli.js exist?

Hey, I had a similar issue. The problem was I had a ! in my username on the computer. Does your user name on Windows 10 machine contain characters other then numbers or letters? I see you put in C:\Users\Me\... Check out the issue I had, hope it helps. #951
