I suspect this is an issue with some node.js addons that need to be compiled from source. This Stack Overflow question seems to address this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63595369/compile-node-gyp-c-addon-with-visual-studio-2017-or-2019 You can also have a look at the setup used by the Windows CI jobs: https://dev.azure.com/antonycourtney/Tad/_build/results?buildId=154&view=logs&j=2d2b3007-3c5c-5840-9bb0-2b1ea49925f3 This CI job is built based on https://github.com/antonycourtney/tad/blob/master/azure-pipelines.yml. It uses the vmImage 'windows-latest'; here is the software (and versions) installed on that vm: https://github.com/actions/runner-images/blob/main/images/win/Windows2022-Readme.md

Hope that helps! Closing issue for now.
