'Installing angular-cli

angular is pretty new to me and english is not my first language so I apologize in advance. I'm a student and I have to do an app using the MEAN platform. We never worked with any MEAN component, or javascript in college but now I have to do this project. I'm following this tutorial -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wtIvu085uU0&list=PLTPtZWpWLI00vlAPQnDt8OlPwoYxuMCQo&index=4 and everything up to 45 minutes into the video worked just fine. At 45 min it says I have to install @angular/cli but I got errors the first time I did it. Then I tried to type npm install @angular/cli again and then there were no errors. It was just like it should be, like it is in the video. But, when I typed ng new client it said

ng is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

I don't know what to do, I tried to install angular-cli again for few times but every time it was the same. I'm desperate.

Versions:

node --version = v6.11.3

npm --version = 3.10.10

Windows 10

Errors I get when I type "npm install @angular/cli":

Solution 1:[1]

For these versions:

node --version = v6.11.3

npm --version = 3.10.10

You Should try Angular CLI 4

$npm install -g @angular/[email protected]

Solution 2:[2]

To use the ng command in the terminal, you need to install Angular CLI globally.

Run this command to install : npm install -g @angular/cli.
