Update the NPM version that pnpm uses

[MisterIsaak]

Due to an NPM bug, I'd like to update NPM but stay on Node LTS.

Can I do that in PNPM and if so, are there special steps?

I'm on Windows so updating NPM requires a workaround anyway, is there an official way to do this through PNPM? I tried searching the docs and Google, but didn't find anything.

I should mention I'm using PNPM to manage node env via the awesome: pnpm env use --global lts

You should be able to update npm using npm:

npm i -g npm@latest

This should also probably work:

pnpm i -g npm

Thank you! I swear I tried the second one before posting and it didn't work but that did the trick. I appreciate the help!
