Cannot find module '../build/Debug/conpty.node'

[erotavlas]

I just installed terminalizer on Windows 10 and when I tried to record my terminal it fails with the following errors

OS = Windows 10 x64 Node.js version = 14.15.0 npm version = 6.14.8

Install command = npm install -g terminalizer

The installation should be very smooth with Node.js v4-v12. For newer versions, if the installation is failed, you may need to install the development tools to build the C++ add-ons. Check node-gyp.

@jef I have a simular error but I do have Node v12:

node --version
v12.19.0

Edit also tried with Node v10:

node --version
v10.23.0

Looks like you need to do npm install or npm rebuild

[JanC]

ah actually installing from the sources works.

git clone https://github.com/faressoft/terminalizer
cd terminalizer
npm install -g .

thanks
