I can not install node-sass-CodePudding

After upgrading my Windows OS, I got an error while installing the node-sass package.

As shown in the output that I provided, the rest of the packages are installed successfully.

To fix this error, I added the path of python and node to environment variable names, installed visual build tools, tried different versions of Python, installed node in other folders and did all the methods that could be found in stack overflow, but I still get the errors.

Please help me solve this issue.

Try this steps:

npm cache clean -f
rm -rf node_modules
npm i

Sounds like a common case of compatibility issue, with the mentioned windows upgrade you probably have installed the newest version of Node-js currently 18 but checking the https://github.com/sass/node-sass repo you can see that the latest supported version is node 17.

Just to be safer you can go even with Node 16 for now and install version ^6.0.

node -i node-sass@^6.0
