error using npm with escape character in user path folder

[IR4N0nY]

hi
unfortunately i have and & in my username in windows and appdata path in my system is =
c:\users\s&a....
when i want to run "ng upate" on my app or any other app with powershell they give me an error like this:

Installing packages for tooling via npm.
Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, mkdir 'C:\Users\s'
The system cannot find the path specified.
An unhandled exception occurred: Package install failed, see above.
See "C:\Users\s&a\AppData\Local\Temp\ng-3iALVs\angular-errors.log" for further details.

i try to rewrite $ENV:APPDATA in my powershell but that was not helpful
in cmd i got this error:

'a\AppData\Roaming\npm\' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:1032
  throw err;
  ^

}

and cant update ro install any thing
my node version = 14.3.0
is there any suggestion to fix this issue?

Hello,

This is not really an issue with Node.js, but with a script generated by npm when a CLI is installed.
I do not know if or how this can be fixed, but here's the package that creates the .cmd wrappers for npm "bin" scripts. An issue is already opened there: npm/cmd-shim#45
