Either you haven't installed the CLI globally or you haven't added your NPM home dir to your PATH?

[LunaBawa]

Please, how do i add NPM home dir to my path?

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27864040/fixing-npm-path-in-windows-8 might help?

Have a look at Yar's answer for finding the npm path. The other answers for how to add that path to your Windows PATH environment variable.

The problem is NOT the install of the NPM nor the path !
If you want to use the "ng" commend you need to install the angular-cli.

https://cli.angular.io/

[deebloo]

like @eran12 said it doesn't look like you have @angular/cli installed. verify that the installation was completed successfully.

Thanks everyone i think i found a way around this

@LunaBawa Would you share please?

[belall-shaikh]

Would you please share?

[aghArdeshir]

yep! share is good!

I believe his solution is to install @angular/cli

this documentation would help : Angular CLI Quickstart

[ezci]

have the same problem after installing cli globally; "npm install -g @angular/cli"
npm is working fine, suggesting it is among path variables.
@LunaBawa, would you mind sharing your solution?

note: in my case the problem was that the above command for global cli installation puts ng into
C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\npm,
though it should see the installation as npm pointed in the build path;
C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\npm
Adding the location in AppData into build variables solved the problem.

Just open your command prompt (run as administrator). Ensure node --v is 6.9.0 or higher and npm --v is 3.0.0 r higher.

After that run the following command:

npm install -g @angular/cli

Once angular is installed. you can see an entry of angular cli in the path

C:\Users\Dell\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules@angular

Then try ng help. It will work.

[Elichii]

it doesn't do for me. any other suggestions?
