Grunt on Windows 8: ‘grunt’ is not recognized

by

I’ve not had any issues with grunt on several different windows 8 machines.

If you open the folder: C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\npm

Do you have a file named grunt.cmd in this folder?

If not I’d maybe try npm install -g grunt-cli again, maybe from an elevated command prompt.

If this exists and you have C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\npm in your PATH environment variable then typing grunt from a command prompt should work.

Silly question, have you tried closing the command prompt and opening a new one?
