I changed my laptop from windows 7 to windows 10 and i can't install a specific version of the angular cli.

I tried this:

npm install -g @angular/cli@4.1.0

I also tried:

npm uninstall -g @angular/cli
npm cache clean
npm install -g @angular/cli@4.1.0

I consistently get:

npm ERR! Windows_NT 10.0.14393
npm ERR! argv "C:\\Program Files\\nodejs\\node.exe" "C:\\Program Files\\nodejs\\node_modules\\npm\\bin\\npm-cli.js" "install" "-g" "@angular/cli@4.1.0"

npm ERR! npm  v4.2.0

NPM version: 4.2.0

After some investigation, it's actually a stupid error. Nevertheless sharing it as the error message provided above is not clear at all.

It turns out that there is no angular-cli with version 4.1.0.

Re-running with the right version as follows did the trick:

npm install -g @angular/cli@1.2.4
