npm install angular-cli throws error (Windows)

Question

I'm having a problem with installation of angular-cli on my Windows machine This is the log of installation. I'm using node v4.4.3 and i have just upgrade it via npm. I have also checked the content of folder C:\Users\Valor_\AppData\Roaming\npm and it's not empty. Node is also added to system environment variables. I have also tried to run my CMD as administrator. Same problem appears.

C:\WINDOWS\system32>npm install -g angular-cli
