Hm could you run npm list -g makecode real quick and see what it shows? I tried what you had and it seemed to work on my end

$ npm install -g makecode
added 24 packages, and audited 26 packages in 1s

found 0 vulnerabilities

$ mkc --version
1.1.0

$ npm list -g makecode
C:\Program Files\nodejs -> .\
└── makecode@1.1.0

Same here, resolved by add global makecode-core

npm install -g makecode-core

[pelikhan]

Try npm install -g makecode@latest
