Answer 1

Answer from Rodrigo Medeiros works for me, but only if I have too the shebang line at the .js file.

There I had another issue. I have node.js installed at c:\Program files\nodejs, and this was my shebang line:

#!c:/program files/nodejs/node

This didn't work, because the blank space. This was the correct one:

#!c:/progra~1/nodejs/node
