Answer 5

The first path in the path variable needs to be the NPM path. Opening the Node.js command prompt I found that the ng command worked there. I dug into the shortcut and found that it references a command to ensure the first Path variable is NPM. To Fix:

1. Right Clicked on My Computer (windows)
2. Selected Advanced System Settings
3. Clicked "Environment Variables"
4. Under "Path" variable, made the FIRST value listed %AppData%\npm

Once I did that I was able to close powershell and reopen and all worked.
