Windows Script Host Error

Closed this issue · 1 comments

When exec('ps', error => {module.exports.hasPS = hasPS = !error;}); runs in index.js on Windows 10 from PowerShell, I get an error that says "Please run this script using CScript. This can be acheived by..." then some steps are listed.

It looks like exec is coming from require('child_process').exec, but I haven't figured out how to debug or step through child_process. I think this is probably something unique to my environment, so I'm just looking for some insight as to what's going on so I can try to fix it.

I wasn't actually able to step through child_process, but I had another unrelated item in found in my PATH variable called ps.vbs that was being called.
