Question

I tried running npm install -g angular-cli

I also tried adding it to the Enviorment Variables under PATH: (C:\\Users\\Administrator\\AppData\\Roaming\\npm\\node

Answer 1

I had the same issue on Windows7. I resolved it setting correct path.

1. First find ng.cmd file on your System. It will usually at:

   E:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\npm
   

2. Set PATH to this location.

3. Close existing command window and open new one

4. Type

   ng version
   

Also remember to install angular with -g command.

npm install -g @angular/cli
