I'm following a tutorial using yeoman and related tools. trying to run:
npm install - g generator-angular
Seems not to work. I tried one solution from npm install -g generator-X error in windows
The solution was:
npm install --save-dev --save-exact [email protected]
But the same error result is shown.
this is the cmd text:
C:\Users\User\my-server\my-project λ npm install --save-dev --save-exact [email protected] [email protected] node_modules\adm-zip C:\Users\User\my-server\my-project

Any new workarounds for the issue?
npm install -g generator-angular
, without a space before theg
, like-g
, not like- g
