Angular CLI not downgrading from v 8.1.3

I have an angular app running with angular-cli version 8.1.3. I want to downgrade to angular-cli v7.0.3. I have done

npm uninstall -g @angular/cli
npm cache clean --force
npm install -g @angular/[email protected]

So when I do ng --version I excepted that the vangular cli version will be 7.0.3, but it was 8.1.3.

I have tried doing it multiple times,but the result is same. What can be the reason?

you need to do npm install @angular/[email protected] inside your project and make sure that you run rm -rf node_modules package-lock.json first.

These command are both working fine

npm uninstall -g @angular/cli
npm install -g @angular/[email protected]

You need to use ng new command in different folder so that your command can take effect

Also you can check version of angular cli in your computer by this command

npm view @angular/cli
