可行解决方案建议 #

1. 适配Node.js版本 #

os.tmpDir()是Node.js旧版API，已被废弃并替换为小写的os.tmpdir()。Appium@next的依赖可能未适配高版本Node.js，建议降级到Node.js 16.x LTS版本，再重新安装。

2. 清理残留后重新安装 #

• 卸载全局Appium：

  npm uninstall -g appium
  

• 强制清理npm缓存：

  npm cache clean --force
  

• 手动删除残留目录：C:\Users\shelly\node_modules\appium及相关子文件夹
• 安装稳定版Appium（若无需尝鲜next版）：

  npm i -g appium
  

3. 全局修复API引用 #

若坚持使用Appium@next，需找到所有依赖中引用os.tmpDir()的文件（不止appium-support，appium-chromedriver的源码也可能有相关调用），全部替换为os.tmpdir()后，重新执行安装命令。
