Checking version of angular-cli that's installed?

Is there a way to check the specific version of angular-cli that's installed globally on my machine? I'm in a Windows environment. *npm -v* and *node -v* only gives me the version of npm and node respectively, and I can't seem to find any commands with ng.

I'm trying to run a project that I'm working on, and it ran on an older version of angular-cli using npm. However, after installing other demo projects, my main project doesn't work anymore without uninstalling and reinstalling angular-cli at the specific version.

ng --version or short ng v kinda correct answers, but there are some important details:

If you running ng v inside your angular cli project folder it will show your local cli version installed in your project (package.json)

If you running ng v outside your angular cli project folder it will always show the global cli version

You can use npm list -global to list all the component versions currently installed on your system.
For viewing specific lists at different levels use --depth.

e.g:

npm list -global --depth 0

Go to your folder path in cmd where your angular is installed and type ng --version it will show your angular version. Thanks.

Simply just enter any of below in the command line,

Not only the Angular version but also the Node version is also mentioned there. I use Angular 6.

In Command line we can check our installed ng version.

ng -v OR ng --version OR ng version

This will give you like this : 

 _                      _                 ____ _     ___

   / \   _ __   __ _ _   _| | __ _ _ __     / ___| |   |_ _|
  / △ \ | '_ \ / _` | | | | |/ _` | '__|   | |   | |    | |
 / ___ \| | | | (_| | |_| | | (_| | |      | |___| |___ | |
/_/   \_\_| |_|\__, |\__,_|_|\__,_|_|       \____|_____|___|

DON'T USE ng --version because it provides a global system installed angular version.

Go to the package.json file, check the "@angular/core" version. It is an actual project version.
