10 years ago I found the solution. The current instructions for installing Pomelo WILL NOT WORK for Windows developers with x64 processors, which is most Windows developers.
Visual Studio C++ 2010 and Visual Studio C++ MUST BE UNINSTALLED for Pomelo installation to work on Windows 8 & 8.1. I think this is because they share PATH with the newer versions of Visual Studio that are required to compile the necessary components/dependencies on x64 processors.
To install Pomelo on Windows you need the following:
- Python (v2.7.3 or a newer v2.x.x, NOTE: v3.x.x IS NOT SUPPORTED)
Additionally, for Windows 8 & 8.1:
- REMOVE Visual Studio C++ 2010, or Visual Studio C++ 2010 Express if installed (In Control Panel > Programs & Features).
- Install Microsoft Visual Studio C++ 2012 for Windows Desktop (The free Express version works well). Be sure to use the "2012" version specifically. This supports both 32-bit and 64-bit processors (x32 and x64).
Additionally, for Windows XP/Vista/7:
- Install Microsoft Visual Studio C++ 2010 (The free Express version works well). NOTE: Windows 8 and 8.1 users, DO NOT install Visual Studio C++ 2010.
- If your processor is x64 (most newer Intel and AMD processors), install the Windows 7 64-bit SDK too.
- Also, if you still get errors that the 64-bit compilers are not installed you may also need the compiler update for the Windows SDK 7.1

My computer runs on a 64-bit chip (AMD A8), with Windows 8.
Visual C++ 10 Express has been installed. Python 2.7 has been installed. The following error occurs when running "npm install -g" from a recent Github clone of the Pomelo repository. How do I fix this?:
Thanks in advance, Austin
