If you're unable to install an npm package due to an encoded URL, you can try the following steps to resolve the issue:

  1. Manually decode the URL: Copy the encoded URL and decode it using an online URL decoder or a programming language of your choice. This will give you the actual URL.

  2. Update the package.json or command: If you're installing the package using a package.json file or a command line command, update the URL to use the decoded version.

  3. Retry the installation: Run the installation command again or update the dependencies in your package.json file with the corrected URL. Make sure you have an active internet connection and any required authentication credentials if applicable.

If the issue persists, it's possible that there might be other factors at play, such as network restrictions or package-specific issues. In such cases, it may be helpful to consult the package's documentation or seek assistance from the package maintainers or the npm community for further guidance.
