Global NPM package installed but command not found

Question

I have globally installed two npm packages \"download\" and \"enigmavirtualbox\" via command line:

npm install -g download and npm install -g engi

Answer 1

The executable binaries and .cmd files end up in C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\npm (minus the node_modules at the end) so adding that path to the PATH env. variable fixed the issue.

List of packages which have been install globally

npm list -g --depth 0

Answer 3

If the above method does not work then use this command to explicitly set the path

npm config set prefix c:/Users/<username>/AppData/Roaming/npm

Answer 4

Set your PATH environment variable to C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\npm. This fixed it for me.
