Make sure you have the correct path in Enviroment variable -> user variable like this

enter image description here

In this case my npm folder are located at 

C:\Users\phuc.ngo\AppData\Roaming\npm

The npm folder is where everything you install can be found like angular cli, webpack, etc...

You need to try installing angular with admin previledge and try to install it globally with -g

npm install -g @angular/cli

after installation check the angular version

ng --version
