When I run the following command:

C:\Users\AA>npm install -g @angular/cli

is this a brand new installation or are you upgrading a previous one? — julianobrasil

While uninstalling it... did you remember to npm cache verify? — julianobrasil

Angular is looking for a 'node_modules' subfolder in the app. You have not created any app, but Angular it's looking for one nevertheless. Type:

mkdir node_modules

And then execute again ng v

This error is a somewhat-well-document and recurrent error with angular-cli (see here). It's probably that you'll find additional errors when trying to run apps with ng serve. You'll probably have to install angular devkit with:

npm install @angular-devkit/core --save-dev
