I think this related to #138

[ThomRick]

Ok after investigation I found that is not related to #138
It's a bug on windows only.

The CLI use spawn from child_process and pass '"npm"'argument to the spawn process name. That causes an error on windows.

That was a fix needed to run schematics on windows with spaces on absolute paths...
We're find a way to fix it soon.

Did you happen to find a temporary workaround for this bug? I am trying to create a new project and keep running into this problem along with the issue with the camel case naming convention. I am on a windows machine as well.

installing with yarn seems to work

[gmcruz123]

first open cmd in your project folder you're not gonna have node_modules folder, so use:

npm cache clean --force

and then

npm i

it solved the problem for me.
