Please tell us how you installed node red.

Please copy/paste the complete output you see in the command window when you start node red. Copy/paste, not screen shot.

Please tell us what address you are using in the browser.

Changed title to reflect the actual issue. Node-RED obviously does work on Windows as many of us use it daily.
