operable program or batch file.

@ShaiLesh-Haldankar This isn’t an issue with Node.js or with npm, it’s the Windows CLI not being able to parse your command. However, with only the error message, it’s impossible for me to tell what went wrong.

Cross-repo issue links seemed to have vanished after the transfer. Re-linking #2642 so as to re-establish.

A couple of commands associated w/ the error message seen here have been identified, which is evident in #2642 (comment).

• From the 1st image, 2nd command: npm -v.
• From the 2nd image, 3rd command: npm install -g @angular/cli.

@ShaiLesh-Haldankar - is this still an issue?
