It probably comes from your angular-cli installation/version. Try to uninstall/re-install it :

Re-install generally 

npm uninstall -g @angular/cli
npm install -g @angular/cli

Re-install for a local project :

npm uninstall --save @angular/cli
npm install --save @angular/cli

Delete the node_modules folder and go to the path (myFolder) where you want to generate a new component and run the below command

ng g component my-new-component

Are you sure myFolder is a module in your project? If it is just a normal folder, I would recommend navigating inside the folder with cd manually and then doing the following

ng g c your-component-name.

When you enter ng g c folder-name/your-component-name, angular expects folder-name to actually be a module which consists of .module.ts file.
