Problems with "yo code" -> stderr: "'powershell' is not recognized as an internal or external command,\r\n"
Well, this error may looks silly, but I spent a lot of hours looking for the answer
after excecuting the command "yo code"
I got this error:
c:\Users\blalbalba\npm\node_modules\yo\node_modules\execa\index.js:347
thorw err;
and a lot of more things. The mos important was this error line
stderr: "'powershell' is not recognized as an internal or external command,\r\n" + 'operable program or batch file.\r\n',
You only need to add it to your environment variables, just follow the following two simple steps:
1.write env in the search bar
or Right click start button -> System -> Advanced system settings -> Environment Variables... -> Select PATH
2. click on the new button and add the following path:
C:\WINDOWS\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\
or %SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\
Hope that this solution works for you too! Good Luck!
kind regards!
