Sorry, something went wrong.
When running the current library version on Windows the process fails with an `chown: invalid option -- '1'` error messages. This is because `os.userInfo()` returns -1 for uid & gid on Windows systems (https://nodejs.org/api/os.html#os_os_userinfo_options). Skipping the postinstall step on Windows seems to be a good option for now. On my system it's running fine.
