i tried to install winattr using

npm i @akryum/winattr

same 404 error

What is expected?

Install vue-cli 3 successfully

What is actually happening?

i tried to uninstall and reinstall node, npm and vue-cli itself

I encountered the same issue. This worked for me

npm install --registry=https://registry.npmjs.com/ -g @vue/cli

What about deleting ~/.npmrc and then try again? In my experience, installation issues of scoped packages are likely to be caused by misconfigured npmrc.
