Answer 1

You can update simply by executing the Windows installer for the latest node.js version from here.

n doesn't work on Windows because it's basically a giant (bash) shell script.

Answer 2

As @mscdex mentioned in the comment above, you cannot use the bash shell script on Windows.

The correct link to update from Windows would be this one.

Then you should click on the right link saying " Current".
