title: npm ERR! code EAI_AGAIN error when trying to install express
body: <p>I'm learning web development by going through a course and it was time to install express using node package manager. I had to install express and used the following command:</p>
  <pre><code>npm install express
  </code></pre>
  <p>and I got an error that said:</p>
  <pre><code>npm ERR! code EAI_AGAIN
  
  npm ERR! errno EAI_AGAIN
  
  npm ERR! request to https://registry.npmjs.org/express failed, reason: getaddrinfo EAI_AGAIN registry.npmjs.org
  
  npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in:
  npm ERR!     C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\npm-cache\_logs\2020-07-21T08_32_35_6
  54Z-debug.log
  </code></pre>

  <p>I'm totally lost at the moment. Please don't judge me as I'm still extremely new to Node. Help would be really appreciated.</p>
