For npm dependencies(Nodejs), PowerShell is stuck after installing VS Build tools and it says it is still waiting for installer log file to install python?

While running the “npm install –global –production windows-build-tool” and installation got stuck after “Successfully installed Python 2.7” as shown in the image below:

Fix:

1.) As the first fix, installing the build tools via Chocolatey instead (Run command prompt as Administrator):

choco install python visualstudio2017-workload-vctools -y
npm config set msvs_version 2017

2.)As the second workaround ,I installed the 4.0.0 version then ran the original one as follows :

Run the command-prompt as administrator and then try the below commands:

npm install –global –production windows-build-tools@4.0.0
npm install -g –production windows-build-tools

Completed !!
