Hello everyone,

I've been struggling to install the argon2 library for NestJS, but I keep encountering the same issue. I've tried several solutions including installing Python, setting up build tools, cleaning the cache, uninstalling and reinstalling, and removing the node_modules directory before reinstalling, but none of these have resolved the problem.

I've attached the full error log in this file

I would appreciate any help or suggestions on how to resolve this issue. Thank you!

How do you install build tools?

Always use the node installer. It's the only way it consistently works.

#

Don't ask why. It fucking sucks to develop on windows and noone knows shit.

Yeah, it's how you're supposed to if you decided not to install it when you installed node

#

Just get latest node installer and tick the darn box

#

But wipe everything first. VS Build, node, python, hell if you wanna be safe also yeet git for windows

Just use the node installer

#

And tick the damn box

It actually works if you just use the node installer after wiping everything.
