How can I set an installed version to system version?

[fadeaway1680]

How did you install fnm?

• Manually using a release binary (Windows)

What happened?

1. I didn't have any node versions before.
2. After installing fnm and installing some versions of node, I run node -v and it works.
3. But when I run fnm use system, node -v didn't works.

It seems like it's because I didn't install node beside fnm. Should I have to?

What did you expect to happen?

• I was wondering if it's possible to set the node version that installed by fnm to the systemnode version.
• Better through the command line.

Wondering this too... I uninstalled my previous Node version because this thing is supposed to be managing all of them, just wasted like 3 hours trying to figure out why my npm packages weren't being discovered... why would I want a manager that can't manage the main installation?

fnm use system is not "an fnm-installed version as the system version", but it is basically "bypass fnm so I use whatever is already installed on the system". I personally never use it. The "main installation" is the default fnm version: fnm default 20 for instance.
