Windows guy, and need help using newman. Trying to following directions here to run a collection via command line: > **[newman](https://www.npmjs.com/package/newman)** > > Command-line companion utility for Postman. Latest version: 5.3.2, last published: a year ago. Start using newman in your project by running \`npm i newman\`. There are 173 other projects in the npm registry using newman. when running newman command: newman run my\_collection.json I get: newman’ is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. I understand it can’t find it, neither could I. And maybe I need to specify the path. I think I found it here? C:\Therma-Stor\node\_modules How does this work on Window 10? Thanks, Eric ---

Ran into a similar issue: While newman was executable both from command line and powershell, running tests in TeamCity failed since it could not locate newman (or any other npm installed CLIs). Solution (in my case): Move npm path from user environment to system environment and restart TeamCity. ---
