title: npm init not working and getting stuck on version
body: <p>So I am using version 8.1.0 of Node.Js and when I call npm init to set up a project it goes to version and stays there. I have tried pressing enter or quitting with ^C but nothing happens. I have waited for over an hour and it hasn't progressed at all. Any idea what I should do?</p>
  
  <p>Here is basically what I am seeing:

  <p>Edit: I tried reinstalling and still didn't work; so I uninstalled version 8.1.0 and installed the user recommended one (6.11.0) and it works fine. I am pretty sure it's a bug in version 8.1.0, but it's the one I need.</p>
  
  <p>Edit 2: Oh, I am running this on Windows 10.</p>
