Answer 1

In PATH ORDER IS IMPORTANT. So anything before desired npm version will still cause problems.

#adding in first place of the path, before anything else
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:otherPathEntries:$PATH

assuming that version of npm You want is in /usr/local/bin, to check all use 'which -a npm'
