Answer 1

if you are on linux(my case ubuntu) and you encoutered this issue. you should try

    $sudo npm install -g ganache

OR

    $sudo yarn global add ganache

This is probably because you used sudo privileges to install npm and yarn in first place. happy hacking :)

Answer 2

For Win10: update PATH env variable adding

C:\Users\myUserName\AppData\Local\Yarn\bin

FYI: In that dir there are 2 files:

ganache-cli
ganache-cli.cmd
