React-native-windows: Unrecognized Command "windows"

[destinyb-realityi]

I have the latest react native installed on my computer and followed these instructions to the letter, but I'm still getting the below error:

error Unrecognized command "windows".
info Run "react-native --help" to see a list of all available commands.

Hello -

Can you please check if the error still occurs if you try the following:

1. Please use the version number like react-native init <project name> --version 0.58.0. Without the version number, you are probably picking up 0.60 which is not supported yet by react-native-windows current.

2. cd into your react-native project before running react-native windows

3. Ensure you have installed the plugin for windows:

npm install --save-dev rnpm-plugin-windows

@hansenyy It's no longer saying command not found, but I'm getting a completely different error:

operable program or batch file.

@rozele - can you take a look?

To fix the following issue:

Make sure there is no & symbol in your project path.
Make sure your PC is in developer mode
Make sure you have all the UWP SDKs installed.

@J4s0nDRevs FYI, I got that error as well. Running npm install then react-native windows one more time fixed it for me.
