Unable to install angular-cli through command line

Please provide us with the following information:

OS?

Windows 10 current version and updated

Versions.

Angular-cli not installed
Node version 4.5.0

Repro steps.

This was an initial install globally in preparation for a new repo. I tried to install the program via npm as instructed in your git repo.

npm install -g angular-cli

The log given by the failure.

Normally this include a stack trace and some more information.

Mention any other details that might be useful.

I have checked for any globally installed npm programs that may be outdated and tried a full global npm update however they all appear to be current just in case this was affecting the issue

Thanks! We'll be in touch soon.

I have updated to the latest node version and received these errors also

Colleague of mine had the same issue and upgrading to Node v6 fixed it.

Just a minor update I upgrade npm and node but I still experienced the same issues on windows 10 however on the same computer but on Linux distro the angular-cli installed without issue. Both systems are recently a new install with the same package versions globally so I'm unsure if this issue is something to do with the new windows 10 upgrade which to be honest is very buggy. As of now i will be sticking to Linux however I hope this flag will highlight maybe an issue should others report similar issues.

For me the issue is closed as I will be using the functioning version on Linux from now. Many thanks for taking the time to review this.

I had the same issue on windows 10 with npm 2 installed, but with npm 3, the issue was resolved.

[nemoo]

I have the same issue, upgrading to node 3 did not help. I also have the new windows 10 upgrade.
npm 3.10.8
node v6.7.0

[cclelio]

You can use this workaround #1190

npm uninstall -g angular-cli
npm install -g angular-cli

[filipesilva]

@escapeimagery your original post was caused by using npm2, whereas npm3 is a requirement of using angular-cli.

Your second issue is a dupe of #1190, as @cclelio noted.

[mahyari]

I have the same problem on windows 10 with below information:

node version: v6.9.1
npm version: 3.10.9

I was clean npm cache, unistall angular-cli and install again but problem exist!

details information:

C:\Users\Current_User>npm install angular-cli -g -f
