When I typed npm i -g ts-node. I've tried using this "sudo chown -R $USER /usr/local/lib/node_modules" in the terminal and it asks for password but I am unable to type anything and if I press enter 3 times it just says "Sorry, try again" and "sudo: 3 incorrect password attempts." I've also tried other solutions and it also asks for a password which I can't type anything or that pressing enter. I do not know what to do anymore so if anyone could help solve this issue, I would greatly appreciate it!
Idk if this can help but when I run this code echo $path

1st one I tried sudo chown -R $USER /usr/local/lib/node_modules
2nd: Run on macOS Terminal:
sudo chown -R $USER /usr/local/bin then provide your password
sudo npm install -g yarn to verify whether yarn has installed or not [enter image description here][1] sudo npm install -g yarn
There's also more but none worked. For some odd reason I can't install anything that's global.
