If you want to update in to ionic version 3 in command lind type

npm update -g ionic

then it will be updated to the latest ionic version,which is ionic 3 Then go to the source code file which you have your code, by pressing shift key in windows right click then you can go to command prompt in there if you using git bash command line you can get that by only ricght clicking.in command line type

ionic serve

and hit enter. This thing worked for me
