Hello.

I have installed newman globally

C:\Users\Administrator>npm install -g newman
npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: this library is no longer supported
npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: Please upgrade to version 7 or higher. Older versions may use Math.random() in certain circumstances, which is known to be problematic. See There’s Math.random(), and then there’s Math.random() · V8 for details.
C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\npm\newman → C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\newman\bin\newman.js

Afterwards when I try to start newman, I get this error…

C:\Users\Administrator>newman
internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:892
throw err;
^

Hey @xUrko

Could you clarify what you mean by when I start Newman, please?

Is there a particular command that you’re using?
