Installation Hangs after "Successfully installed Python 2.7" while installing production windows-build-tools

Trying to install windows-build-tools using the following command

npm install -g --production windows-build-tools

But seems it hangs after installing python2.7. I have waited for almost 30 minutes but not moving forward. Any solution??

Solution

  • It should be a npm package bug of windows-build-tools.

    Step 1: Be sure you installed Visual Studio Code

    Step 2: Search %temp% under window search bar (Copy %temp% then press windows button + Ctrl V)

    Step 3: Create 'dd_client_.log.txt' and enter 'Closing installer. Return code: 3010.'

    Now you should be able to finish the whole process with npm install --global windows-build-tools
