Error: npm ERR! write after end

Question

I am having issues installing Cordova and Ionic. At first I couldn't because of what seems to be a corrupted installation, that led me to uninstall NodeJS - Cordova - Ionic.

Now, I've reinstalled NodeJS, without issues but when it comes to the famous line :
npm install -g cordova ionic, I've got this error :
npm ERR! write after end then everytime I try to install cordova ionic, I've got the same error for a different package ...
Here are errors I get :

C:\Windows\System32>npm install -g cordova ionic
npm ERR! write after end

If any of you can help me, it would be very appreciate ;-) Have a nice day...

EDIT 1 : after installing some packages and trying again, I've got this now :
