**Bug** If the typings installer is run under a copy of node that does not include npm—but on a machine that does have npm installed—it will incorrectly try to use the npm that does not exist next to its running version of node **Fix** Make sure that we check that npm we select exists before trying to use it as the default. Otherwise, fall back to using plain old `npm`

@amcasey Would old VS Versions still be broken though? Can we perhaps pass in a command line flag to enable this new behavior? |

@mjbvz Good catch - yes, it would have to be behind a flag (assuming it works now). |
