Answer 1

I had the same problem. Node installed into the directory C:\Program Files (x86)\nodejs. Initially I was trying to install and run javascript files from this directory, which caused numerous permissions problems.

If you've put your server in that directory, try moving it to another directory (perhaps in Documents), navigate there in your Node command prompt, and try running again.

That worked out-of-the-box for me.
