I run npm install in my project dir, but npm won't install package in my project ,even not generate node_modules folder,

Is there a package.json in the directory where you ran `npm install` from? — Andrew Myers, Jul 19 '16 at 03:04

C:\Users\broven\AppData\Roaming\npm

I dont think this would be your project directory, you wouldn't run a package json there would you?

Did you run npm init in the root directory of your project before using npm install? npm init will create a package.json file for you.

Ok, I'm not sure why things are not working then. Could you post a picture of your project directory? Also, I would recommend looking through [this](https://github.com/npm/npm/wiki/Troubleshooting) troubleshooting guide. – Thomas Wolfe Jul 20 '16 at 16:04

Based on log seems C:\Users\broven\AppData\Roaming\npm is not your project directory. Can you ensure your path and then try installing again.
