I’ve just fixed the issue on Windows 7 x64 and I’m glad to share my solution.
The issue:
Error: Command failed: fatal: could not create work tree dir 'C:\Users\532B~1\AppData\Local\Temp\plugman\git\1403892003394'.: No such file or directory
Where 532B~1 is some sort of representation of non-latin username of my current user.
The folder AppData is hidden by default.
The solution:
All you need to do is to create plugman and git folders manually and make sure they are not read-only.
Do you have any other advice? I have tried all of the solutions here on this site, and have installed the most recent version of Cordova at lest 5 times , so there is no way that it can possibly be out of date, and I am still receiving the error message below whenever i execute the ionic start myApp command in my Windows Command Prompt.
ERROR
Unable to add plugins. Perhaps your version of Cordova is too old. Try updating <npm install -g cordova>, removing this project floder, and trying again.
I have followed this installation video several times all the way through, and still no luck.
As a result I am unable to add platforms and get started building apps using ionic.
Do you have an alternate recommendation for a Development environment that I can use in order to start using Ionic???
I am running windows 7 on a laptop. Not sure if that’s important but i thought i would mention it anyways.
Both Java and ant are configured correctly. And I have already added the path environment variables because it was included in the installation video that I posted two comments ago.
Yes I am able to run android and install all of the most recent updates. I am even able to use the android sdk in Eclipse to run an android emulator, so I am fairly confident that it is installed correctly.
I believe that there may be an issue linking the executable cordova file and the android sdk, because the command shell continues to throw an exception every time that I try to use ionic/cordova and android together.

I do not know your config(不知道你的具体配置).When i mkdir in my home(i use ubuntu 12.04) .It will be mkdir a ‘tmp’ and this dir need root.(当我用inoic生成todo的时候会产生一个tmp目录，这个目录需要root权限操作),and i chmod this ‘tmp’ to 777。It worked(我把这个tmp目录改为777权限的时候，起作用了)。Maybe you can try this.(你可以试试，祝好运。)
I run “ionic platform add android” when such errors occur. I’m sure my path is right, including the ant, jdk, sdk. You know, there is no longer a version of this problem. How can I fix it?
I discovered tat my error was occurring because I didn’t have root administrative privileges. This probably isn’ the case for you.
Can you repost the picture of our error message? My browser is unable to render the image, but I want to attempt to help you, because I was able to find a solution to my problem after several days of banging my head against my computer.
Said the error: "Error: Please install Android target 20 (the Android newest SDK) Make sure you.
have the latest Android tools installed as well. Run “android” from your command
-line to install / update any missing SDKs or tools. "
But my version is the latest android sdk, avd is 4.4w’s. Then I tried to install plugman, but still the same error. T^T

Solution:
After following the above video, install the “git” from here http://git-scm.com/downloads.
Add “git” path (C:\Program Files\Git\bin) to Environment Variables as shown in below image, similarlly how JAVA, SDK, Node.js paths added to PATH.
I have an error: Error: Command failed: Cloning into C:\Users\User\Appdata\Local\Temp\plugman\git\1407…

Thank you, but I have resolved. But I was using cordova3.5.1. On this site http://cordova.apache.org/announcements/2014/08/04/android-351.html, use this “cordova platform add android@3.5.1 --usenpm”, will be solved. I suspect that the previous version of cordova the bug.
