Hi! First of all, sorry for the delay. I had not tried on Windows. What version of nodejs do you have installed? I tried nodejs v14 on windows 10 and I had no problems but I found the following requirements.

• I recommend you to use nodejs version 14 onwards, at least it is with the one that I have been testing and programming. If you need support for several versions of nodejs on your machine you can use nvm but I don't know if they have support for windows.
• You must have python installed. The reason for this is that the library used for calculations compiles the binaries in c ++ using node-gyp. You can download python from windows store.
• The project uses node-gyp, to compile the swisseph libraries and use them as addons in nodejs. I leave you the following link with the instructions to run it on windows (You need to install some visual studio compilation tools) https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp#on-windows.

With that, I had no problem running the project. I hope I've helped.

Thanks for reporting the problem! I need to update the requirements and maybe the installation guide when I do it and see that you have no problems I will close the issue.
