Welcome to the forums @Tais

I have moved this away from **Developing Nodes** - clearly installing Node RED is nothing to do with developing a node red module.

You mention power shell, so I guess this is Windows?

Power Shell isn't a requirement, so shouldn't be a point to investigate.  
So how are you trying to execute it?

What command are you running to try and run it?  
I don't use Windows my self, but it will help to understand the steps you have taken thus far.

Lastly what error are you getting?

And are you using the latest version of node-red? There was a fix released for Windows yesterday.
