> No, its more likely the OP does not have the build tools installed. @jts450 You tried to install at path C:\Users\Justst03\ - I suspect this should be C:\Users\Justst03\.node-red\ node-red is not tested on NODE V17 - so i would uninstall that & install NODE V16 LTS or NODE V14 LTS when you install NODE, there is a checkbox to install build tools - this must be checked if you are to install any nodes that have a compilation step [image]
