What helped me was to place the  js file that I was working with in a new folder  drag and drop that folder into VS Code  to open the directory directly in VS Code   open the terminal in VS Code  and then simply type node  lt filename gt  js  or in my case node index js    I had already installed node on my system  but for whatever reason  I was still getting the error that you ve mentioned  even when I typed the direct path to the file i e  node  desktop index js     So  creating a new folder on my desktop  placing the  js file inside that folder  opening that folder within VS Code  and then typing node index js in the terminal solved my issue

I had the same issue when I first tried on node js  I noticed this issue was happening to me because I had some  js files with same names in different directories  which were in the same main directory  I created another directory outside the main project folder  and created a  js file  After that  it ran fine  ex- app js
