Windows only  The clue is to arrange the entries in the path variable right  As the NPM wiki tells us   Because the installer puts C  Program Files  x86  nodejs before C  Users lt username gt  AppData Roaming npm on your PATH  it will always use version of npm installed with node instead of the version of npm you installed using npm -g install npm    So your path variable will look something like   C   lt path-to-node-installation gt   appdata  npm   Now you have to possibilities   Swap the two entries so it will look like       appdata  npm C   lt path-to-node-installation gt       This will load the npm version installed with npm  and not with node  and with it the installed Agnular CLI version   If you  for whatever reason  like to use the npm version bundled with node  add the direct path to your global Angualr CLI version  After this your path variable should look like this       C  Users  lt username gt  AppData Roaming npm node modules  angular cli C   lt path-to-node-installation gt   appdata  npm      or          appdata  npm node modules  angular cli C   lt path-to-node-installation gt   appdata  npm        for the short form  This worked for me since a while now

Before wasting lots of time in installing and uninstalling  read this   If you already installed angular before and found this issue  may be it is the reason that you installed angular before with running terminal as Administrator and now trying this command without administrator mode or vice versa  There is a difference in these two   If you installed angular without administrator mode you can only use angular commands such as ng without administrator mode  Similarly   If you installed angular with administrator mode you can use angular commands such as ng in administrator mode only
