I'm completely new at this and keep getting an error message trying to install truffle. If I need to delete or add anything please explain in detail how to do so.

I had similar issue and this is how I solved it

  1. Remove the already installed truffle
sudo -i
cd /usr/local/lib/node_modules/
rm -r truffle .truffle_

  1. Make sure Ganache is running first before reinstalling truffle again

  2. Install Truffle: npm install -g truffle
