Hi, @bbauti

Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention, by looking at your error log, you're trying to use this command npm install @tensorflow/tfjs-node so by default it will install latest version of @tensorflow/tfjs-node which is 4.8.0 and at the moment we don't support that version on Windows machine so last supported version is 3.18.0 for tensorflow/tfjs-node on Windows machine so could you please try to run this command npm i @tensorflow/tfjs-node@3.18.0 and let us know whether is it working or not as expected ?

I see in your log currently you're using python 3.10.6 so could you please give it try by downgrading that python version to 3.8 0R 3.9 please ?

If issue still persists please share error log as above with @tensorflow/tfjs-node@3.18.0 which will help us to investigate your issue as quickly as possible ? Thank you!

Same,

Also tried with Node 18, same errors

[TobCraft3521]

In github tfjs installation guide it says you need python 2.x I got the same error with python 3.8(+) and im trying 2.7
https://github.com/tensorflow/tfjs-node/blob/master/tfjs-node/WINDOWS_TROUBLESHOOTING.md#ensure-python-2x-is-installed EDIT: doesnt work - still same error + i did add it to path

[reinvanhaaren]

I had the same error: symlink ./lib/napi-v9 failed: Error: Command failed: node scripts/deps-stage.js symlink ./lib/napi-v9

My solution (after a few hours debugging) was downgrading Node.js version from 18.17.0 to 18.16.1.

Note: I run my build on GitHub Actions with windows-latest.
