Update: Oct 2021, the latest versions working with below "trick" are:

Node v14.16.1 (or older but not below v14.5.0) Node v15.8.0 (or older but not below v15.0.0) Because Node updated from libuv v1.40 to v1.41, and with that, causing Win7 errors: ws2_32.dll does not have GetHostNameW function (or something alike).

  1. System-Properties => run: systempropertiesadvanced.exe => Advanced tab => Environment Variables.

click 'New' again, add "NODE_SKIP_PLATFORM_CHECK" with value "1", and click OK.

Click OK of all dialogs close.

Restart your machine, so explore and cmd will get the fresh set of variables.
