if you are on linux(my case ubuntu) and you encoutered this issue. you should try

    $sudo npm install -g ganache

OR

    $sudo yarn global add ganache

This is probably because you used sudo privileges to install npm and yarn in first place. happy hacking :)

For Win10: update PATH env variable adding

C:\Users\myUserName\AppData\Local\Yarn\bin

FYI: In that dir there are 2 files:

ganache-cli
ganache-cli.cmd

The most likely cause is that the global modules installation directory is not in your path. As a quick workaround, you can run it like this:

`npm root -g`/ganache-cli/cli.js

A better idea (aside from fixing your PATH!) would be to install it as a dev dependency in the project that needs it (so npm install -D instead of npm install -g) and then run it with npx (so npx ganache-cli rather than ganache-cli).
