Hi
I had a similar issue, when I installed on a fresh Windows 10 machine.
After testing and trying a lot, I thought what was different to my old installation.
Then, I came up, that GIT was not yet installed.
So, I installed GIT and REINSTALLED NODE + NPM and NOW-CLI
Then, everything worked fine.
Also have a look at my articles on the NOW UI Experience:
Article #11 - Fast Track to your first "Now Experience UI Framework Component"
Give that a shot and let me know.
Let me know if that answers your question and mark my answer as correct and helpful.

Hi
Did you Install "GIT" then as well?
THAT was the solving point for me!
