Its because of environment path setup

For now you can use npm run ng serve command

Run the following the command to know npm default path

npm config get prefix

If the path is different than AppData/npm then change it

npm config set prefix "$APPDATA\npm"

And again run npm config get prefix to get current path then set it to Environment Variables and restart the system

You will need to log out then log back in for the change to your PATH variable to take effect.
