I looked in the cache directory, realizing that I'd run npm install as directed for generator-fsharp as administrator, so I tried following the install instructions with npm install -g yo and npm install -g generator-fsharp in a user-level command line.

After running these commands with user-level access command line, I ran the aforementioned commands again. I still get the same error:

      throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event

Looking in the cache dir, I see there's no dir called fsprojects, so I re-ran npm install -g generator-fsharp:
