@CanMehmetK the Collecting system information... step can take a bit of time, did you wait after that message shows up?

[CanMehmetK]

@rigor789 Yup, i was in same page but long time wait (more then hour, multiple times, with log trace) nothing happened..

[dave2k2]

exactly the same issue here, uninstalled node, uninstalled nativescript... cleared down everything, fresh install of all including java and android sdks, and still hangs.

bizarrely was working earlier in the day prior to restarting my machine, so something in my environment configuration must be blowing it up. short of completely formatting my machine not sure what else to try... log trace produces almost identically to the OP:

[dave2k2]

If anyone is still struggling with this nightmare try this:

• check your environment variables path for this: C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\npm\node_modules@npmcli\run-script\lib\node-gyp-bin
• remove it
• restart cmd
• retry tns doctor

for me it completed and resolved this hanging issues, there were no log outputs, was just a pure trial and error guessing game.

@dave2k2 thanks for sharing that!
