I just started using node red. Using the manage pallete it doesn't download. It gives me the same error when i load the npm code into powershell. Doe anyone know how to fix this?
Welcome to the forum @Tehn
What actual error are you getting?
npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE
npm ERR! errno 1
npm ERR! @serialport/bindings@9.0.3 install: prebuild-install --tag-prefix @serialport/bindings@ || node-gyp rebuild
npm ERR! Exit status 1
npm ERR!
npm ERR! Failed at the @serialport/bindings@9.0.3 install script.
npm ERR! This is probably not a problem with npm. There is likely additional logging output above.
There will be more log output above that with the actual details of what failed.
Sorry, entirely new to this kind of stuff.

No problem at all - the log output can be overwhelming at first, but if you scan through it carefully, it will often include the piece you are missing:
Thank you so much! It's working now!
That seems to indicate that you didn't install windows-build-tools - you should install that and not just python.
Yes, i noticed. While following the link that the error had given i was able to download the whole tools package. Thanks for your help anyways!
