I create a new Angular app using dotnet new angular which currently specifies Angular 4.2.5 in the package.json. I run the app and view source and ng-version is 4.2.5 which is correct.

I then specify Angular to use 4.4.6 in the package.json:

"devDependencies": {
    "@angular/animations": "^4.4.6",
    "@angular/common": "^4.4.6",
    "@angular/compiler": "^4.4.6",
    "@angular/compiler-cli": "^4.4.6",
    "@angular/core": "^4.4.6",
    "@angular/forms": "^4.4.6",
    "@angular/http": "^4.4.6",
    "@angular/platform-browser": "^4.4.6",
    "@angular/platform-browser-dynamic": "^4.4.6",
    "@angular/platform-server": "^4.4.6",
    "@angular/router": "^4.4.6"

I completely remove the node_modules folder and run npm install. After install, I check .\node_modules\@angular\common\package.json and it shows a 4.4.6 version. However, when I run the app, ng-version still shows 4.2.5. Why does it still show 4.2.5? How do I fix this?
