I am very new to sails js. I just installed sails globally on my local machine and when I try to create a new project with the command "sails new test-project", it just fails. And it fails everytime, the error is somewhere with NPM. Following is the verbose from the command prompt.

------------------------------------------------------------
Failed to install dependencies.
New app was generated successfully, but some dependencies
in node_modules/ are probably still incomplete or missing.

Before you continue, please make sure you are connected to the
internet, and that your NPM registry hasn't gone down.
Then cd into the new app and run:
rm -rf node_modules && npm install

See below for complete error details.

Please suggest!!

Start by reproducing `sails new test-project` on Windows 10 with the reported Node.js 8.11.3 and npm 5.6.0 versions. Read the `npm install` output, especially the ENOTFOUND request to registry.npmjs.org and the proxy/network guidance. Done means determining whether Sails can address this failure or whether it is solely an npm connectivity problem.
