Though Your Problem seems to your system's error because as your screen shot shows : I've observed following:
- You've Altered Your NodeJs Installation Directory(knowingly / Unknowingly)
- Packages are stored here : "C:\Users\YOUR_AC_NAME\AppData\Roaming\npm"
Remedies :
- First Uninstall Node.js Completely From System
- Delete Residue Folders left behind
- Install a Fresh copy of Node.js
Add Path to Environment + System Variable as Following :
C:\Program Files\nodejs
C:\Users\YOUR_AC_NAME\AppData\Roaming\npm
After That Install Express Generator Globally
Hope It Helps :)
