Answer 2

Assuming you have prisma installed in a local project:

npm i prisma @prisma/client
- or -
pnpm i prisma @prisma/client
- or -
yarn add prisma @prisma/client

Just call prisma generate like this (docs):

npx prisma generate
- or -
pnpm dlx prisma generate
- or -
yarn prisma

It works for all other node_modules using CLI as well (also in Windows).
