Unable to install keytar on windows 10 node 6.9, npm 4.3

@julianilsson @hardik-shah-28 did you guys try to install node-gyp and windows-build-tools globally?

npm install --global node-gyp
npm install --global --production windows-build-tools

At least that did the trick for me. If you are not on windows you might need something else than windows-build-tools, but have not tried myself.

From the looks of it your Python executable wasn't found: Error: Can't find Python executable "C:\Users\AlexBondo\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35-32\python.exe", you can set the PYTHON env variable..

[abondoa]

Tried executing "C:\Users\AlexBondo\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35-32\python.exe" in terminal and it started python as expected - also before installing node-gyp and windows-build-tools. Sorry for not specifying that originally.

[50Wliu]

Ok, and what if you use python2? I believe node-gyp is only compatible with python 2.

[julianilsson]

I ran into the exact same issue and I'm using python 2.7.10. @abondoa did you find a solution to the problem?

[hardik-shah-28]
